Welcome back to Backstage – the TV and film podcast from Sky News.

Joining Sky’s entertainment reporter Claire Gregory this week is TV and film reviewer Stevie Wong, and Sky arts and entertainment correspondent Katie Spencer.

We are joined by Rachel McAdams and Abby Ryder Fortson who tell us the importance of their new film, Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, based on the classic 1970 novel by Judy Bloom.

There are mixed reviews for Air, the star-studded film with Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Viola Davis and Jason Bateman about Nike’s 1980s collaboration with Michael Jordan.

Plus, Patricia Arquette and Matt Dillon tell us about their new comedy series High Desert, and hear the team’s thoughts on the UK’s first gay dating show, I Kissed A Boy.
