About this episode

Rob Scal discusses Emerald Fennell's adaptation of 'Wuthering Heights' and what constitutes a good book-to-screen adaptation.

This week I’m unpacking Emerald Fennell’s new “Wuthering Heights” adaptation — and the bigger question it raises: what actually makes a good book-to-screen adaptation?

Then I wrap up with Songs of the Week. 🛒 Yarok Plant-Based Beauty - Vegan Hair Care 💰 Get 15% OFF | Promo Code: OVERSHAREPAMPHLET https://yarokhair.com/discount/OVERSHAREPAMPHLET You can follow me on Instagram and Threads @robscal.jpg, on TikTok @robscal.com and on Twitter @robscaltweets
