This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast goes to the movies with the physicist Jess Wade, who has reviewed the Marie Curie biopic Radioactive. Wade is in conversation with Physics World editor Margaret Harris about the much-anticipated film, which Wade thinks fails to live up to the extraordinary life of Curie.

Also this week, Physics World’s Tami Freeman describes a new technique for monitoring radiation therapy using fluorescent tattoo dye. The episode finishes with Hamish Johnston trying to answer ten physics trivia questions that Matin Durrani set for readers on Good Friday. Durrani reveals the answers including James Clerk Maxwell’s favourite pet.
