Titanic, Tattoos & Trade Wars

The Rest Is Entertainment

Thursday, 17 April 2025 - 35 minutes

Why are books rectangular, and what does it have to do with ancient Greek mathematics? How did Mike Tyson's tattooist almost bankrupt The Hangover franchise? And how was Star Wars almost derailed by a armed robbery?


Richard Osman and Marina Hyde answer your questions on plots of cancelled TV shows, how cinemas actually 'play' movies and how to hide the tattoos of your favourite action heroes
