Helmets Ahoy! The Book of Boba Fett Parts 1&2. Ian is joined by Mark Plant to discuss the opening two episodes of the new Star Wars series. WARNING contains spoilers!

Season Four: Episode One. Fog, Farts and Fishwomen. Three stories of life in a lighthouse. From a modern tale of isolation, madness and death, a charming children's favourite to a classic example of Doctor Who gothic horror. I'm joined by Mark Plant to talk mermaid sex, the British aristocracy and Texan oil barons.

Cult Connections at Christmas. Stephen Spurling joins Ian to take a look back at three festive TV specials from Christmas past. A cosy family drama, a variety special and a pair of millionaire sleuths.  So are they worth cracking open the sherry or would you be better sleeping off the turkey?

Cult Connections at Christmas: Ho Ho Horrors. Three very different Christmas films and three very different Santa's. Helen Carey joins me to discuss  festive fantasy, alienation and why don't want these Santa's coming down your chimney!

Cult Connections at Christmas. Some of the best remembered films at this time if year aren't Christmas themed at all. Ian is joined by Mark Plant to discuss a World War II blockbuster, a rather dodgy musical favourite and quite probably the very essence of James Bond!

Science fiction doesn't really do the festive season but Good News Everyone! Futurama has come to the rescue. Ian is joined by Joe Higgins to talk Robot Santa, Tinny Tim and the true spirit of Xmas!

Ian is joined by Sean McGinty as we both watch the Japanese Anime classic Howls Moving Castle for the very first time. We discuss imagery, world building, voice work and so much more. And find out how dumb we feel having taken so long to watch a true masterpiece!

Season Three: Episode Eight. It's part two of "The Trilogy Within A Film Series Trilogy" Friday The 13th is a franchise which plays fast and loose with it's own continuity (including Jason himself). However Parts IV, V and VI all feature the character of Tommy Jarvis albeit played by three different actors. I'm joined by Helen Carey as we discuss our favourite Tommy's, bald caps, bananas and 80s dance moves.

Season Three: Episode Seven. Ian is joined by Christopher Craig from A Musical Sunday to review three versions of Hairspray. From screen to stage then back to the screen, it's a funny, diverse and sometimes bizarre tale of representation, identity and just needing to dance!

Season Three: Episode Six. American Outlaws. Ian is joined by Chrisi Talyn Saje from Madison On The Air to talk  train robbers, strong women and pot heads. All three films document journeys through the  American cultural, societal and  physical landscape as, Bob Dylan once sang, the times they are a changing.
