Game of Thrones has received 32 Emmy nominations, meaning it now holds the record for the most nominations for one drama series in a single year.

The news comes despite the fact that many fans were left disappointed by the quality of the final season, which wrapped up a couple of months ago.

Jennifer Gannon and Alison Healy discussed this and some of the other Emmy nominations this year.

They also talked about the best of the moon landing commemoration programmes airing this weekend, and why Women's Aid is becoming increasingly concerned by the behaviour of contestants on Love Island.
