Tom PickupHOST
Yeah.
Tom PickupHOST
We watched Oliver at the London Palladium, famously, the musical, and I, I can't remember whether that was before or after the film.
Tom PickupHOST
I think it might have been before- I think it was before ... because- Yeah ... because I don't think we knew who he was until then.
Tom PickupHOST
So then you're- No ... our only introduction to Jonathan Pryce was as a musical guy.

Romesh RanganathanHOST
Like, so Nancy and Oliver, that's meant to be holy shit, that's an amazing song.
Tom DavisHOST
Yeah.
Mike SmithHOST
You know, I don't know how I'd feel about it now.
Mike SmithHOST
I feel like you look back at like Oliver 1968 and that movie winning best picture, especially it feels like sort of like.
Mike SmithHOST
In some ways, like Green Book winning in 2018, like the last gasp of like a dying version of Hollywood before new Hollywood comes in, you know, like the next year, like Midnight Cowboy wins Best Picture and like that kind of thing.
Mike SmithHOST
It's like a whole different world that's entering the zeitgeist.
JosephHOST
And I thought my first note, which I'm so happy I can, by the end, eat my words, but I thought Annie was so annoying.
NickHOST
I can't, again, nothing, this little girl was directed the way she was directed, and they took two years to fill this role, okay? So, it was giving, it made me want to watch Oliver, the Oliver Twist musical again, which I don't have fond memories of seeing, besides the song, Oompapa, Oompapa, everyone knows, but...
NickHOST
Every moment of her saying anything was giving me goosebumps.
NickHOST
And there is a fight scene early on that my note on that was Chucky.
JosephHOST
Anne Rankine, as Grace Ferrell, shows up in this super expensive car in front of this sad orphanage and everyone's acting like a celebrity has shown up.
JosephHOST
And she just barges into the orphanage.
JosephHOST
And I thought this was creepy because she says, well, I work for Oliver Warbucks, the billionaire.
JosephHOST
Which in 1933 means that he runs the world.
Henry WinterGUEST
Uh, they will review, as, uh, Kane delicately put it, uh, what happened out in, uh, out at the World Cup, which is important.
Tim VickeryHOST
Sounds like Ron Moody in, in Oliver.
Tim VickeryHOST
Reviewing the situation and then deciding to run away, um, because it's not too good.
Tim VickeryHOST
Is that, do you think, Tommy T's situation? Could the Wembley crowd against Spain Play the role of, of Emperor Nero and put the finger down on him
