In this episode of Southbank Centre’s Book Podcast we have an excerpt from writer and director Richard Ayoade in conversation with Adam Buxton, as he reflects on his award-winning films and comedy.

As well as reading extracts from his latest book 'Ayoade on Top', the author explains how he drew inspiration from the unlikely source of cabin crew rom-com 'View From the Top' starring Gwyneth Paltrow.
