On to Christopher Münch's short fictionalised account of John Lennon and Brian Epstein's 1963 Spanish holiday, which explores their relationship and themes like miscommunication, and the power dynamic between the admirer and the admired.
This was Ian Hart's first go at playing John, and we discuss how he and his co-star David Angus perform, the significance of the pair watching Ingmar Bergman's The Silence in the film, and the merits of taking narrative licence with a real event to explore something wider. Oh, and there's some innuendo, obviously.
