Ghosts' Kiell Smith-Bynoe talks to us from the set of 'Dreamland', his new TV series, where he is having to do a lot more crying than he's ever done before. We picked his Dream Role for him based on his requirements 'a villain on a horse'... so Gaston from Beauty and the Beast was the logical choice. We opened a bucket of shame when we pushed him about his worst ever job and frankly we think he was doing the washing up throughout the ep, so apologies if you can hear that!Get in touch and let us know what you think on [email protected] ep was edited by Emily Owens.

Just in time for the release of Hocus Pocus 2, Ruth Madeley tells us about her obsession with Hocus Pocus, her love of Bette Midler, camp comedies, and we all do some incredibly bad maths.
