The Best Bits

Since cinema's earliest days, slow-motion has been utilised by filmmakers to make moments last longer, look special and feel different. From Eadweard Muybridge's "The Horse in Motion" to "The Matrix" and Bullet Time, Will and Kevin discuss some favourite slow-mo scenes.

Will and Kevin tackle not one but two weirdly specific, randomly selected themes in this double episode. First up are "Movies within Movies" before segueing into "Breaking the Fourth Wall". From "Matinee" to "Wayne's World" and "Funny Games", it's a bumper ep.
