What do Loki, Everest and Arsenal tea bags have in common?
In this episode of The Romesh Ranganathan Show, Romesh is joined by actor Tom Hiddleston to talk about his new film Tenzing the true story behind the first successful ascent of Mount Everest, and what it was like filming it for real, with no green screen.
They also get into 16 years as Loki, what Marvel gets right (and why it deserves more credit), and exactly how much Tom knows about what comes next.
A Ranga Bee Production.
Tenzing is available on Apple TV from 16th October.
