Show Notes
Peter Helliar welcomes comedian and newly minted children’s author Emma Holland to chat about the classic rom-com Notting Hill, a film she somehow missed until now! They dive into Emma’s first impressions of the Julia Roberts–Hugh Grant favourite, her top three films (Finding Nemo, About Time, and Boiling Point), and why Finding Nemo still makes her cry. Along the way, Emma shares stories about her globe-trotting childhood, her love of theatre, and her knack for accidentally burying birds mid-movie. Funny, heartfelt, and filled with film geek joy, it’s a delightful chat about love, laughter, and the movies that shape us.

Keep it fun and under a minute and you may get on the show.

Tim Minchin is back in the studio with Pete Helliar — and this time, he’s talking about a film he absolutely has not watched: the 1968 Steve McQueen classic Bullitt. Armed with nothing but confidence, guesswork, and a vague awareness of “that famous car chase”, Tim gives his best (and increasingly chaotic) take on a movie he hasn’t seen…until now. Expect wild plot guesses, questionable facts, and plenty of laughs as Pete tries — and mostly fails — to keep the conversation on the road.

Musician, comedian, and all-round genius Tim Minchin joins Pete Helliar to chat about three of his all-time favourite films — Shaun of the Dead, Four Lions, and Everything Everywhere All At Once.
