If ever there were a film series that would be good for a list it would be Bond. So many to discuss, such as villains, songs, opening sequences, stunts, ladies and the Bond actors themselves. All of which make up what a Bond film has to offer and why we like them.  A devilish quiz for Matt and insight into the back stories of the films demonstrate our family Bond film upbringing. Questions raised are why was Never Say Never Again made and why was Casino Royale made so late in the series,...

What is war good for? Nothing apart from the creation of some incredible films that show the best and worst of ordinary people.  Often brutal, visceral experiences that can be a tough watch, but at the same time powerful and memorable. The madness of it is also depicted in terrific comedies too. Another tricky quiz for Matt to overcome and some topics to ponder such as Are The Last of the Mohicans and Braveheart war films? Is Casablanca? How many new films did Matt watch in preparation?...

The 1980s was the decade that we grew up in.

Does Midnight Run get in? What films just missed out? Which little gems do we recommend? Can Matt successfully navigate another tricky quiz? What is his opinion on crocodiles and why was Michael Caine not at the Academy Awards to pick up his Best...

Which film did Lewis cough up hard cash for in order to watch again for the first time in 25 years and is...

A top 10 with a difference as we reveal our favourite films seen on the big screen. Some classic films, some unforgettable experiences. Some of them dreadful. What is the preferred cinema snack? Which seen have we paid to see the most? What is the one (different) film that we each fell asleep in?  What is the most ridiculous Steven Seagal character name? The answers to these questions and others are revealed in another nail biter of an episode. 

Are Paint Your Wagon and Back to the Future part 3 westerns? Can you name every Clint Eastwood western and what in our humble opinions are the best castles for hide and seek and strongest salt and vinegar flavoured crisps? These heavy topics and more are discussed, culminating in our top 10 films in the western genre. The podcast contains 2 uses of mild explicit language.
