The Twilight episode: two Twi-hards and one Twi-virgin

It’s been 15 years and the Twi-hards amongst us have been lying low. But now, we emerge. The Twi-naissance is here. To celebrate the anniversary year of Catherine Hardwicke’s Twilight, we force Hannah to watch it for the first time. We discuss the chokehold this series had Lowri and Maisie in as teenagers and the reasons we keep returning to it time and time again. We discuss actor chemistry, easter eggs and the astonishing impact of this franchise.Plus we hear some HOT takes from our fellow Twi-hard listeners.
