Sara & Cariad's Weirdos Book Club · Frankenstein by Mary Shelley with Vanessa Hammick · 14 May 2026 podcast

And then she's pregnant.

I'm like, why is she pregnant?

That's what I'm never sure with this book.

And with that, I'm like, are we meant to infer?

But this is an interesting thing that you were watching the adaptation with Ben last night.

And when I said you didn't talk about Ben's film, Nina Forever, I just remembered in that adaptation, they don't make the female creature that then Victor immediately kills, as happens in the book, which is so bizarre.

And so, of course, in the Kenneth Branagh version, and this is a kind of opportunity that I felt like Mary Shelley left wide open for Kenneth Branagh.

Yeah, yeah.

That's pretty much what happens to William.
