Tim and Blake catch up on their time in Lockdown and what is keeping them entertained. They discuss high culture with the National Theatre and Royal Opera House online streamed performances. Tim recommends Eddie Murphy in Dolomite is my Name whilst Blake has enjoyed the creepily appropriate satire Vivarium and laughed like a drain at supernatural comedy Extra Ordinary. They also talk about the escapist viewing that’s been cheering them – Spanish crime caper Money Heist, Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin’s warm hearted The Kominsky Method and Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin’s odd-couple friendship comedy Grace and Frankie.

But it’s not all screens – they also talk about some film soundtracks they think listeners will enjoy including:

Tim: Jerry Goldsmith’s score for Basic Instinct, and Bill Conti’s soundtrack to For Your Eyes Only. For a final choice he suggests you check out Vince DiCola’s soundtrack album for Transformers the Movie, one of “the archetypal 80’s synth and rock albums” where “every single track is great”. His final pick is Alexandre Desplat’s soundtrack to the Grand Budapest Hotel.

Blake: Surveying the whole canon of John Barry, he tries to pick just one, and settles on 1960s Beat Girl. Of the great synth scores out there Blake recommends Tangerine Dream’s score for the vampire-western mash up Near Dark and Cliff Martinez’s soundtrack to Neon Demon. His final pick is the “warming, comforting” soundtrack to Wes Anderson’s The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.
