'Joy' creators Rachel Mason and Jack Thorne

'Joy' creators Rachel Mason and Jack Thorne

Surprise! We're here on a Friday to give you a little something extra: an interview with the screenwriters of the new Netflix movie Joy, which comes out today, starring Thomasin McKenzie, James Norton and Bill Nighy, about Jean Purdy, Robert Edwards and Patrick Steptoe, the creators of IVF.


Rachel Mason and Jack Thorne tell us about how their own experiences of IVF informed the narrative of the movie, why it was important to centre the story on Purdy, and which of the stars is the most beautiful cryer.


No Prof Tim this week - see you on Tuesday!

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
