Mark invited Mark Gatiss, Noomi Rapace, Reggie Yates and Riz Ahmed to join him on Mark Kermode Live in 3D, for the 64th actual live show in NFT1, which marks six full years of monthly shows at the BFI Southbank.

They were all great conversations and if you missed out tonight you can catch it on the Kermode on Film podcast.

The Amazing Mr Blunden, Lamb, Pirates and Encounter were discussed.  And so were After Love, Love Actually, A Muppet Christmas Carol, Nil By Mouth, La Haine, The Long Goodbye, Romancing the Stone, Paddington II and Elvis Presley’s ‘68 Comeback Special — as well as ten films set on Xmas eve including The Apartment, Trading Places and When Harry Met Sally.

Oh and House of Gucci. And Bug. And The Exorcist, natch. A rocking end-of-year show, hosted with customary panache by the inimitable Dr K.
