Amazing Spider-Man, Killer Joe and Stories 24, we welcome 4 Countem, 4 guests into the

of the late Nora Efron.

Hello pod, I'm Chris Hewitt and welcome to the Empire Podcast to film podcast, it likes

us pie heated but we don't want the ice cream at all we want on the side and we'd

like strawberry instead of vanilla if you have it, if not then no ice cream just whipped

cream but only if it's real, without the can, then nothing.

I'm joined as ever by 3 magnificent colleagues, let's introduce them now because when you realize

you want to spend the rest of the podcast with someone you want the rest of the podcast

to start us in as possible.

So it's hello to pod staple, Helen O'Hara, hello it's actually pronounced pod staple, it's

name, pod staple sorry yeah, it's in, it's in, it's in, it's in Darby, isn't Darby

sure, I believe yeah, Darby Shire and returning for the first time in a while to the podcast

the amazing unstoppable hair machine that is Ali Plum, how are you?

I'm well thanks, hello, where have you been?

I've been in, in a bin outside the office, I wonder what the smell was and thank you for

bringing the smell in now, which is grand and making a second consecutive appearance on

the podcast, which is something we'll have to do something about, is Empire's second

posh's journalist, he went to the same schools, is right, as Kira Knightley.

Yeah, but I should say for her that it was I went there long before she went there.
