Captain Sensible's solo career had become successful.
LewisHOST
The band's personnel were changing, and they were moving towards a more overtly gothic sound.

DavidHOST
Yeah.
LewisHOST
Alexi Sayle podcast, after the show, the band and cast went out to a Chinese restaurant.

What we've got this time, and interestingly enough, with a female character, which is a rarity in Guy Ritchie movies, lawyer Rachel Wilde, played by Isa Gonzalez, alongside her specialist fixers, played by Captain Sensible, Sid, Henry Cavell, a bronco, Jake Gyllenhaal, who specialise in recovering deaths.

Captain Sensible started it, apparently.
Paul HanleyHOST
Yeah.
Paul HanleyHOST
He spat out somebody in the audience, and then for the next two years, everybody in the audience spat at him, so it serves him right, but...
Dave SchneiderHOST
Man, they just came right out of the gate without him.

Right.
Anton BarbeauGUEST
And whenever I've heard songs that he produced, they really jump out.
