'Death cannot conquer true love, only delay it for a while...' Welcome back for a swoonworthy new season of Hopeless Romantics! Woohoo! It's a film you've either never heard of, or can quote start to finish. For many of us, 'The Princess Bride' is core memory level stuff. What a pleasure to reminisce about and celebrate one of my favourite films of all time with the incredible Meg Mansell as we reflect on our own experiences of unrequited love, young love and finding 'the one'. Get around Meg on her socials and read her weekly capsule at Capsule. Make sure you chuck Hopeless Romantics a follow on insta and tiktok Love you. More than a friend x

MY DEBUT NOVEL! (with Yvie Jones)
The time has FINALLY come! 'Love on the Air', my debut novel, is on its way out into the world after living in my mind and on my MacBook Pro for three wonderful years. I am so so excited to introduce Alex York to the world. I hope you love her as much as I do! In this episode, my girl Yvie Jones and I talk all things 'book writing' - hopefully it will inspire some people listening to get going on their 'big idea' (even if you have no idea what the heck you're doing) If you'd like to pre-order the book (please do!) I've put all the links here. If you want more of Yvie, get around her new podcast Can I Pat Your Dog? Love you guys. More than a friend. x

Notting Hill (1999) with Harriet Power
Let's be honest, this week we all need a comfort watch, and they don't get much more comforting than Notting freaking Hill. I don't think any woman has ever been more beautiful in any film than Julia Roberts in Notting Hill. And no man has been floppier than Hugh Grant. Beautiful meets floppy. Romance ensues. Big love to Harriet Power for joining me once again with all her with and warmth! Make sure you chuck us a follow on TikTok and instagram! love you. more than a friend x

Practical Magic (1998) with Claudia Zeine-Hayes
There's murder! There's curses! There's demon possessed ex lovers! There's dead parents! And to top it all off? There's a gorgeous love story between a woman and the cop investigating the murder she committed. But it's romantic, I swear! Happy Halloween, lovers! We're heading back to 1998 for a film with the knockout cast to end ALL knockout casts. Sandra. Nicole. Stockard. Diane.'Practical Magic' ain't winning any Oscars, but it's winning our hearts and there's a reason why this film is a comfort-watch for so many people in their 30's. Sandra Bullock is the queen. We bow down forever. Amen. Love you, more than a friend x Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

SPECIAL EP: The return of our teenage hearth throbs with Alice James
Sometimes you gotta just throw the podcast premise out the window and dedicate an entire episode to the fact that Sept/Oct 2024 has been a big month for the gals/gays/theys/anyone who ever found themselves sexually attracted to Joshua Jackson or Adam Brody (or in my case, both, at the same time). Thank you universe, thank you. x Ash
