A bonus track to 2019 - join our two gentlemen philosophers as they review the films we shared over the year, and for James to mercilessly beat Huw into the ground with statistics. Again.

It's 1981 and everyone's flocking to see the sci-film of the year ... Outland with Sean Connery.

We unearth this hidden gem of a sci-fi western, and mercifully keep the impressions to a bare minimum. We do have schandards, you know.

It's 1987 and we're still in the age where, if you wanted a big creature in a movie, you got a big guy in a suit to do it!

Podcast-favourite John Lithgow is on fine form here as the paterfamilias of an all-American family that bring a Bigfoot into their home.

It's 2000 and Spike Lee's satirical comedy-drama about a modern televised minstrel show is due to be released to box-office ignominy and huge financial loss.

It's a weighty subject this month (you can tell James chose the film)and our two gentlemen philosophers give this one the consideration it deserved.

It's 1996 and a unique crime caper staring Jada Pinket, Queen Latifah and Vivica A. Fox is setting off on the big screen.

Our two gentleman philosophers have a lot of fun unpacking this one, including a digression into Derbyshire accents, a thorough exploration of a minor character's romantic life, and the mystery of what makes James' yogurt so chewy..

It's 1989 and the British romantic comedy juggernaut that is Richard Curtis takes its first socially awkward steps in the form of Jeff Goldblum's leading role about a minor actor. Cinematic debits for Emma Thompson and Mel Smith in the director's chair.

Our two gentleman philosophers - one of whom is most certainly not broadcasting from a toilet - take a good look at this embryonic and overlooked attempt at a romantic comedy of manners. Should have added more weddings, mate.

It's 2006 and Bel Powley plays the eponymous Carrie as she undertakes this bildungsroman quest with the aid of cherry soda and a didgeridoo.

It's a light romance film aimed at young adults - and it's fair to say this one is far from the comfort zone of our two gentleman philosophers. Luckily we can slip in a quick Benedict Cumberbatch impression to see us through.

It's 1980 and Bruce Beresford's courtroom war drama, staring relative unknowns Edward Woodward and Bryan Brown, reached the cinemas, made an impact, and apparently has been forgotten everywhere but Australia.

There's a lot to unpack with this one, and all of it good. Settle in for a good look at a hidden gem. And remember Rule 303!

It's 1981 and the world wasn't quite ready for Michael Crawford in the title role of super-spy Condorman!

We enjoyed ourselves heartily with a look back on what happened when Disney tried to do James Bond, and everyone involved - from veteran Oliver Reed to favourite of James' dad Barbara Carrera - brought something different to the party (not just the dip).

It's 1972 and director Elaine May brings us a dark romantic comedy, penned by Neil Simon and starring Charles Grodin and Cybill Shepherd. It goes without saying, James picked this one.

Join our two gentlemen philosophers as we attempt to unpick the knottiest of problems: would there still be deceit in the cauliflower if you added cheese?
