It’s another starry Backstage, the TV and film podcast from Sky News, and this week it’s featuring a return to Wakanda and a look at Tim Minchin’s latest project.

Claire Gregory is back from her holidays and is joined by our Hollywood man in the know Stevie Wong, alongside Sky’s arts and entertainment reporter Bethany Minelle.

Matt Hancock has finally entered the jungle, and the gang discuss what happened as the former health secretary made his reality TV debut, plus Claire laments about the cancellation of HBO’s Westworld – her favourite show!

Stevie also takes us through the BIFA (British Independent Film Awards) nominations for this year, with Paul Mescal’s Aftersun stealing the limelight.

The stars of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever chat to us about the newest entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as looking at the legacy of Chadwick Boseman on the franchise.

This week we review Spirited, the Christmas film from Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell, the BBC’s joint project with Prime Video, The English, with Emily Blunt, as well as the second season of Tim Minchin’s Upright – who tells Backstage about why he nearly never did any more of the show.
