Norman Jay MBE & Edgar Wright OMG!

Lauren's final podcast of 2017 stars writer, director and Grammy nominee Edgar Wright, who talks Baby Driver (1 & maybe 2); as well as DJ and national treasure Norman Jay MBE.

Lauren's final podcast of 2017 stars writer, director and Grammy nominee Edgar Wright, who returns to 6 Music to talk about the "action movie synesthesia" triggered by the The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion; and the 700-strong playlist of "Baby Maybes" that he had to whittle down when writing the screenplay for Baby Driver.

We also welcome DJ (and national treasure) Norman Jay, who remembers pivotal trips to NYC, where he discovered underground disco and early hip hop records, and embraced a whole counter-culture (right down to his "shelltoe" trainers). We also have very new news (the ink's still wet on the contract): Norman confirms that he's been persuaded to write about his life and career.
