The second half of Series 5 kicks off with Peter Jackson's 1994 crime drama, Heavenly Creatures, which introduced two phenomenal actors at once: Kate Winslet and Melanie Lynskey. It's based on the true story of two mid-century teenagers in New Zealand (Pauline Parker and Juliet Hulme) who, lost in their own an imaginary world, enact a murderous plot to stay together against their parents' wishes. It's a very special episode-long Keggers with Kids segment, as we're joined by 14-year-old Logan G, who shares their masterful powers of perception with us on the nature of the girls' friendship and who is really "to blame" in this terrible case that rocked a nation. On the Lunchtime Poll, we talk about Honora almost skipping dessert before she's "moidered", and we share what we hope we would have done if we had no tomorrow.
