Fine Cut with Ria Carrogan and Kim Rowe

Alyson, Ria and Kim discuss the “Are You There Moriarty?” Scene from One Day (episode 9) starring Leo Woodall and Ambika Mod. Dex (Leo Woodall) goes to visit his incredibly posh girlfriend’s family and ends up getting pulled into a family game of “Are You There Moriarty?” that ends poorly when Dex crosses the invisible line that always exists in games and power dynamics, but is almost impossible to decipher, especially if you are an outsider. Alyson approached Kim and Ria about joining her to discuss this scene because she’s never watched something that illustrates, so perfectly, the cruelty, in some families, that is disguised as fun. The scene takes many fascinating turns and reveals so much about the characters and their lives. They had a wonderful time chatting about it. Please join us!
