  • 64- Someone to Watch Over Me & Roxy Music: Avalon (1980s, Ridley Scott #6, 80's Music videos #2)
    Sep 21 2024

    Happy weekend everyone! Today on the show- as part of #ScottSeptember- I talk about the Ridley Scott film 'Someone to Watch Over Me' and the Ridley Scott directed music video for 'Avalon' by Roxy Music. Two lesser talked about things in the career of the director that I thought it was intresting to find time to talk about during this mini-series.

    Anyway, next episode- it's 'Blade Runner'.

  • 63- Apple Macintosh: 1984 (1980s, Ridley Scott #4, Classic advertisement #5)
    Sep 15 2024

    Continuing #ScottSeptember this episode sees Paul and I discuss Ridley Scott's iconic '1984' Apple Macintosh commercial (if you've never seen this, I strongly recommend you check this out on YouTube, it's a beut).

    Oh, and we recorded this in the summer of 2023 and so when I criticise the government/ the home office, I am slagging off the Conservative Party/ Robert Jenrick. Good riddance, etc.

  • 62- Black Rain (1980s, Ridley Scott #7)
    Sep 7 2024

    Okey-dokey, #ScottSeptember continues with this episode- which eagle-earer listeners may note was recorded last summer- where Paul and I discuss Ridley Scott's 'Black Rain'. And there's talk of many of Scott's films in this ep as we spend a significant amount of time discussing the themes running throughout the director's filmography (during which Paul says something about 'Blade Runner 2049' which I 1000% disagree with- though I don't think I address that with him until our forthcoming 'Blade Runner' episode...).

  • 61- Legend (1980s, Ridley Scott #5)
    Sep 2 2024


    It's #ScottSeptember baby as this episode (which Paul, Kieran and I recorded back in mid-December 2022) kicks off a run of Ridley Scott 1980s episode. Today's film is 'Legend', the director's 1985 fanasy film starring a pre-'Top Gun' Tom Crusie and so you can expect talk of 'Lord of the Rings', Game of Throne, director's cuts of films (a Scott staple), as well as misadventures in laundry. Enjoy!

  • 60- Beetlejuice (1980s)
    Sep 1 2024

    Ahead of the release of 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice' (weird title, but whatever) I decided this was the perfect time to sit down on mic and give my thoughts on the original 1988 Tim Burton film, 'Beetlejuice', along with my scepticsim about the upcoming sequel.
