Megan Spencer is one of Australia's most well-known film-makers, critics and broadcasters. Her documentary work often explores the space between fandom and fame, and tonight we show her groundbreaking documentaries on Aussie Rules football fans (Heathens) and one woman's love of pro-wrestling (Lovestruck). Megan will join us (via the miracle of Skype) from Fiji.
