Episode 16
Dubious representations of the working class, incomprehensible foreign policy, freedom of movement in pre-Brexit Britain; Love Actually is not only the finest Christmas-themed rom-com ever made, it is also a time capsule preserving Britain’s biggest political and cultural debates from the last twenty years.
In episode 16 of Jumping Off Points, hosts Timbah and Aidan get into the festive spirit by - very tenuously - analysing the film’s positions and messages.
