Daniel Radcliffe 29th November
BBC 5 Live has done many film review podcasts and this time it was with an interview with Daniel Radcliffe. The Format of this podcast is a discussion between two presenters Mark Kermode and Simon Mayo thus making it presenter led. Simon Mayo talks to Daniel about him in Kill your Darlings and Mark Kermode reviews Saving Mr. Banks, Carrie, Free Birds, Jeune et Jolie, The Best Man Holiday, Day of the Flowers and Leviathan. Before the interview they spend the time talking about people's comments/e-mails. They play an audio clip from the film that their interviewee stars in. During the interview, Daniel is asked semi-open questions which is that is specific but allows Daniel to expand on his answers. This makes him comfortable enough to answer the questions as if talking to a friend. The interviewer seems to have researched about the film as well as Daniel Radcliffe, it shows in how the questions are structured, specific and accurate. After the interview, they discuss the downfall of the difference between films and TV shows. Because of all these factors, the Genre of the podcast is both a Special Interest (Films) and Educational.
