Elaine and Mark met at a movie club and got married in a brewery. Mark loves spreadsheets. Elaine can’t pronounce asterisk. We watch a lot of film and TV.

Saved By The Bell is back and Mark cannot contain himself! We take an unexpected dive into Mad Mikkelsen’s career during our Fantastic Beasts 3 chat. We are loving CNN’s coverage of the US election. Jurassic World: Dominion has wrapped, so we take the opportunity to look back (in a rather haphazard way!) at the franchise. And, finally, even though we said we wouldn’t talk about cinema delays anymore we can’t help but discuss the rumour that Wonder Woman 1984 might be going to HBO Max…

We recorded this podcast on the eve of the American election. Will we know who the President of the USA is by the time this episode goes out?!

Spooky scary - Part 1! It’s the first of our two Halloween specials.
This time, it's Mark’s turn to have some skele-fun. He’s picked John Carpenter’s science-fiction action horror They Live (1988). Get ready for alien lifeforms, “Red the Bum” from Back to the Future, and wrestling. Lots of wrestling. Find out how many pumpkins Elaine gives this cult classic. Will it be a graveyard smash?!

We’ve had our first major podcasting fail and lost the Date Night episode that *should* have come out this weekend. However… to cheer ourselves up, we decided to record another! Take a trip to Padua as we tackle Mark’s favourite film of the 90s (and Top 5 film of all time, no less!).

This week, we muse over the first part of Jude Law drama The Third Day (2:41). Mark has binged the box-set of BBC Three’s Ladhood (13:00) and thinks you should too (but act quickly!). And Elaine realises just how far reality TV has come in BBC One’s Little Mix The Search (18:02). Meanwhile, Mark’s been waiting months to see UK film Rocks (28:25) and now can’t wait to tell everyone how much he loves it.
Also, find out which early 2000s songs Elaine hates, and why Mark has been singing them.

In this week’s show, we continue to lament further delays to a number of films, including the news that No Time To Die has moved to Easter 2021. Elaine is not a fan of The Witches remake. Mark questions Elaine’s definition of a “cult classic”. And we are both excited about the WandaVision trailer.
