With Simon Pegg

Keavo takes a rib-tickling satirical romp through the day's news and events, plus Simon Pegg joins him to chat about new film A Fantastic Fear of Everything.

Thursday sees Simon Pegg join Shaun to chat about his new film 'A Fantastic Fear Of Everything', a dark comedy based on Bruce Robinson's Paranoia in a Laundrette and adapted for screen by Crispian Mills, who makes his directorial debut.

Simon plays Jack, a children's author turned crime novelist whose detailed research into the lives of Victorian serial killers has turned him into a paranoid wreck, persecuted by an irrational fear of being murdered. When Jack is thrown a life-line by his long-suffering agent, and a mysterious Hollywood executive takes a sudden and inexplicable interest in Jack's script, what should be his 'big break' rapidly turns into his 'big breakdown' as Jack is forced to confront his worst fears; among them love, laundry and serial killers.
