S3 Ep5: Music movies special with Laura Jean Marsh of new film 'Giddy Stratospheres' (Series 3, Episode 5)

When we heard someone was making a movie drama about the guitar scene of the mid-'00s we couldn't have been more excited - not least because it sounded like the film version of this very podcast! That someone is writer, director and star of 'Giddy Stratospheres' Laura Jean Marsh, and she joins the show to talk to us about her inspirations for the film: everything from the Long Blondes track it's named after to her time in scene band Screaming Ballerinas and memories of an amazing time in British music. She's also appeared in Peep Show, so we quiz her on that too.  Inspired by the interview, and noting that Christmas is a time for movies (at least according to the current Sky Cinema ad), elsewhere Rick and Sarah run down their 10 favourite music movies of all time. If you'd rather not hear us rambling through our list you can skip to the interview with LJM at around the 50 minute mark. But why would you want to do that, when the rundown is packed with top movie recommendations and trivia that should keep you going well through the festive period???
