Radio 1's Screen Time Folgen

Today we have a very, very, very special episode of Radio 1's Screen Time for you in honour of the upcoming Wallace And Gromit adventure, Vengeance Most Fowl - set to hit UK TV screens on Christmas day at 6.10pm on BBC One, by the by - in the form of a bumper-edition behind-the-scenes on-set audio documentary all about everyone's favourite stop-motion duo. Heading to Aardman's studios in Bristol to see how the magic is made, Ali has (as you'll hear) the time of his life speaking to the likes of directors Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham, star Ben Whitehead and many of the other incredible people who work so hard to bring the cheese-loving icons of animation to our screens.

Today we have a return visit from a friend of the show, the comedian and actor and voice artiste Ben Schwartz, who just happens to be Sonic in that new motion picture film called Sonic The Hedgehog 3 (out next week, December 21st, fact fans). He’s also Jean Ralphio in Parks and Rec, Clyde Oberholt in House Of Lies, Dewey Duck in Ducktales… the list goes on and on. He’s also the man behind touring improv super show “Ben Schwartz And Friends” and just so happens to think and speak supersuperfast, so expect an "all over the place" conversation between Ali and Ben - in a good way - as they talk about all sorts, including James Marsden in Jury Duty and what to do when an interview goes very, very wrong...

That foolish human being known as Ali Plumb has managed to injure himself - but that’s not stopped him from getting you a podcast for this particular week, oh no no. Stepping up to the plate to help is the wonderful Auliʻi Cravalho, voice of Moana - as well as two of the directors of Moana 2 and its songwriters, Barlow And Bear. Not bad eh? Particularly when you remember this new sequel is break box office records left and right.Safe to say Moana 3 is going to be a thing sooner rather than later (not forgetting that live-action version they’re cooking up…)
