The Perfect Couple, Taylor and Travis and womens’ wildest fantasies

Nicole Kidman’s badly-behaved-billionaires thriller The Perfect Couple is no1 on Netflix but we are divided! Kathleen loved it, Ellie didn’t, so we hash it out…(no spoilers!) and look forward to Kidman’s VERY racy film Babygirl. On that note, is The Times right to say that women’s ’dirty talk’ has become big business in pop culture? Gillian Anderson might agree: the star has just published an anonymous collection of sexual fantasies from women around the country, and Ellie reads out her, um, favourites. Plus: we dissect whether that viral Travis/Taylor ‘breakup contract’ can possibly be real, and Kathleen recommends a heartbreaking but empowering new podcast about fertility from our fellow pod hunnies at Shameless. Huge thanks to our sponsor Yonder, the incredible lifestyle credit card that allows you to collect points for every pound you spend and then redeem at amazing local restaurants and bars, as well as against experiences like theatre tickets (such as Shifters!), online shopping and more.
