SRSLY is hosted by Caroline Crampton and Anna Leszkiewicz, the NS’s head of podcasts and pop culture writer. We’re on Twitter as @c_crampton and @annaleszkie, where between us we post a heady mixture of Serious Journalism, excellent gifs and regularly ask questions J K Rowling needs to answer.
In this episode, Caroline and Anna discuss A Very English Scandal (6:42), the film adaptation of Ian McEwan’s novel On Chesil Beach (16:20), and the 2001 rom com Kate & Leopold (28:33).
