Off with your head. Dance til you're dead. In this episode Paul and I continue our ongoing Blackadder coverage, by discussing the show's 1989 Red Nose Day special. And since the special is only about 15 minutes long, we also find the time to discuss how we feel about the British royal family, in particular King Prince Charles...
This week's episode was recorded a long time ago (2015) in a galaxy far, far away (Wood Green, North London). What we have here is two Star Wars conversations- with Paul and I discussing 'The Empire Strikes Back' and me and Jev talking about 'Return of the Jedi'- originally released on my OG podcast, the SpielbergPod. And listening back to these, 2015 was an interesting time to be a Star Wars fan as we are all eagerly awaited the release of 'The Force Awakens' and the start of the sequel trilogy (oh, what a journey we were about to begin...).
In this episode- recorded all the way back in 2022 ("The best things come to those who wait" - Heinz Ketchup) - Kieran and I discuss the Martin Scorsese film, 'The King of Comedy', following Kieran's first-time watch of this. You can expect comparisons to 'Taxi Driver' and even more comparisons to 'Joker' from Todd Phillips.
In this episode- again from our Boxing Day recording sesh- Lee, Amanda and I discuss the iconic 'the red car and the blue car had a race' commercial for mid-tier chocolate bar Milky Way.
As you would imagine, we spend most of the episode discussing chocolate bars we like/ dislike.
In this episode, recorded live and in person with my siblings (Amanda and Lee) on Boxing Day 2023, we discuss the 1989 'Magical Place' advert for Toys R Us.
