Episode description

We were in the dark about film set lighting, so we had the bright idea to track down a Practical Electrician, aka a Prac Spark, aka Danny Fealey, to illuminate us.


Danny joins us fresh from the set of 'Deadpool 3' to shed some light on watt those bright Sparks get up to...


What's the difference between a Spark, a Gaffer and a Rigger?


How much of it is real, and how much of it is fake?


Do they still work on films that are set before electricity existed?


Also this week, there's a triple helping of your Crew Confessions, a questionable Keir Starmer impression, and some exciting 'Severance' news!
