The Adventures Of Priscilla Queen Of The Desert (1994), plus Jay Roach

The late, great Terence Stamp's death at the age of 87 has left behind an incredible body of work, but what a gamble The Adventures Of Priscilla Queen Of The Desert was. He'd never headlined a comedy, he'd never done a musical, he wasn't keen on Australia - and yet he agreed to sign up for a low budget Australian indie that over three decades later, is still awash with stories. The second half of this episode is handed over to director Jay Roach meanwhile, who talks about his new movie, The Roses. The chat also covers bits of Recount, Meet The Parents, the big film he never made, and even a dab of The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy... Learn more about your ad choices.
