Mix Tape, The Narrow Road To The Deep North, and Washington Black. With guest Mark Gatiss

Bookish goes Poddish this week as Mark Gatiss joins us on the show to talk about post-war crime solving on U&Alibi (30:01-51:57). Plus we review a trio of time-hopping dramas this week from Aussie/Northern ‘80s drama Mix Tape on BBC2 (1:11:16), epic WWII literary adaptation The Narrow Road To The Deep North on BBC1 (1:26:44), and emancipation and invention adventure Washington Black on Disney+ (1:37:44). And, courtesy of a listener, we delve into the different types of streaming drops from weekly drip-feeds to all-you-can-eat binges.
