Episode 28: Heated Rivalry special ft Jacob Tierney and Peter Peter

Heated Rivalry, the Canadian show about the romantic relationship between rival ice hockey players Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov, has become a bonafide TV phenomenon, making stars of its formerly unknown lead actors Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, as well as generating discussions on everything from how sex is depicted onscreen to homophobia in sport. It's also got a killer soundtrack thanks to creator and director Jacob Tierney's excellent music taste - from Feist to Wolf Parade and that iconic club scene using t.A.T.u's 2002 hit "All the Things She Said" - and original score composer Peter Peter. Both Jacob and Peter catch up with Roisin to talk about the runaway success of the show, and discuss why music is so integral to Heated Rivalry when it came to developing the relationship between Shane and Ilya.Subscribe to The Independent's music newsletter, Now Hear This here, to get your weekly dose of the latest news, music and artists grabbing Roisin's attention.
