"You're short!" Millie Bobby Brown and the Stranger Things cast on the weirdest fan interactions

The cast of Stranger Things - including Millie Bobby Brown, Noah Schnapp, Sadie Sink, Finn Wolfhard, Eduardo Franco, Charlie Heaten, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin and Priah Ferguson - talk to BBC Radio 1's film critic Ali Plumb over the magic of the internet as season 4 (part 1) finally arrives. The cast chat about "spoiler reaction faces", bloopers, dancing and fans being weirded out that - somehow! - they've all grown up over the past six years. Imagine that, eh?

Ali should definitely be getting more than 5 minutes.. I understand giving 5 mins to other journalists/interviewers but this guy is just soo good. Deserves a lot more time..

[@cevanille1104]

She's fucked up her face with plastic surgery. Just look at her Enola Holmes interviews 2 years ago, she had different lips, a different philtrum and a different chin. It's sad she looks like an insta "model" now (which really is a porny look). She got her lips done (lip lift + injections in the upper lip that's why her cupid's bow and philtrum are different). She got a chin implant to make her face V-shaped and that's why her jaw is bigger, they probably injected filler ot soften the contours of the implant, or she is just still swollen from her surgery.
