What made Jurassic Park a roaring success back in 1993? Was it the compelling science fiction story, a star-studded cast, awe-inspiring visual effects or … Jeff Goldblum monologuing while bare-chested?
For our very first episode, Molly and Chloe are joined by visual effects supervisor Russell Darling. He explains what made Steven Spielberg’s classic blockbuster such a groundbreaking movie, with its blend of animatronics and computer-generated imagery. (And Russell should know: he worked on the sequel, The Lost World!)
We analyse how all the filmmaking tricks come together to make memorable scenes like the T-rex’s night-time attack and the raptors running amok in the kitchen. And we ask why screenwriter Michael Crichton’s fascination with chaos theory resonates in an age of hubristic billionaire technologists…
Plus we pick our favourite 90s moments and crown the funniest death, best dinosaur and much more.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
