10/10 (Would Recommend)

Latest Episodes:

Sex Education 3, Stranger Things 4, The Witcher 2 and Phil Wang Jul 30, 2021

Show notes

As this season of 10/10 Would Recommend draws to a close, we thought it would be churlish not to at least give a cursory nod to some of the smaller, unknown shows coming to Netflix in the last half of 2021. You know, give these shows as much of a chance of finding an audience as possible. So bear with us while we force ourselves to take a look at *checks notes* Stranger Things 4, Sex Ed 3, Money Heist 5, The Witcher 2 and a whole host of commercially risky ventures.

Joining Tolly and Gena this week is the brilliant Phil Wang, who's own special "Philly Philly Wang Wang" arrives on Netflix on 10th August 2021.

There's so many shows mentioned, we're going to get ~RSI typing them pout, but OK THEN IF YOU INSIST.

Each week join hosts and IRL friends Tolani Shoneye (of The Receipts podcast fame) and Gena-mour Barrett (who works for Netflix) as they discuss what they're watching, and what they think * you * should be watching.

The story of Sexy Beasts - your new favourite show Jul 16, 2021

Show notes

You've seen the trailer, right? It. Blew. Up. A beaver talking to a devil, talking to a panda over dinner - wait, what?

'Sexy Beasts' is the most nuts dating show you've ever seen in your lives. Think 'Love is Blind' meets 'The Masked Singer' and you're still only about halfway there.

In order to try and make sense of this prosthetics maker's dream, Tolly and Gena spoke to the exuberant Simon Welton - the Executive Producer and creator of the show - a man with one of the greatest pedigrees in entertaining television we've ever met. What this guy doesn't know about good telly, frankly can go jump.

Fear Street is here for your souls... and RL Stine is here to say hi! Jul 09, 2021

Show notes

Originality is a rare beast nowadays, which is why we're super proud of the Fear Street trilogy, or should we say thrill-ogy!

Three incredible full-length feature horror films released weekly? Crazy right? Not only that but it has interweaved characters, plot-lines and oh... starts in 1994 and ends in 1666 and is written by a master of his craft - Goosebumps creator RL Stine.

He dropped by to speak to the ladies , who are so pathetic when it comes to horror, we got Alison Peirse, and actual academic expert in horror films to come and calm them down.

Then, to see how much they've been paying attention, Producer Jamie put them through their paces with a special quiz. Horror? Some of Tolly's answers will give you the heebeegeebies!

Too Hot to Handle? Melinda and Marvin certainly are... Jul 02, 2021

Show notes

You didn't think we could cram S2 of 'Too Hot to Handle' into one episode did you? Hell no - and seeing as Tolly and Gena spent so much of last week DROOLING over poor Marvin, it only seemed fitting that we throw him to the 10/10 lions with only his love(?) Melinda for protection.

You want the tea spilt on THTH? Of course you do. You want unfiltered opinion on the reality conveyor belt? Why wouldn't you? Here are four people getting well and truly STUCK IN.

Too Hot to Handle 2 is here - allow us to spill the tea with Chloe Veitch! Jun 25, 2021

Show notes

Sometimes you just have to call the experts in, right? There are millions of things Tolly and Gena are experts in, but being a reality TV star is not one of them (yet). So who better to get on the pod to talk about the INSANE new second season of 'Too Hot To Handle', than Chloe Veitch - 'The Circle' Alumni and star of THTH S1?

Sweet Tooth is the tonic we need - Star Adeel Akhtar explains why... Jun 18, 2021

Show notes

Sweet Tooth is one of the most charming series you'll watch this year. Telling the story of Gus, a hybrid boy/deer (bear with, yeah?) and his search for his mother in the midst of a catastrophic pandemic.

Exec produced by Sue Downey and her completely-unknown-unlikely-to-ever-amount-to-anything husband Robert Downey Jr, it has captured the hearts of millions - hitting the number one slot worldwide.

Adeel Akhtar stars as Dr. Aditya Singh, but you will almost certainly already know him from one of the many shows lucky enough to have him, such as Killing Eve, Utopia, The Big Sick, Four Lions, The Night Manager and Back to Life. He is ubiquitous, brilliant and one of the nicest people we've ever had on the show.

Adeel is speaking from a hotel room in London - whilst Tolly and Gena managed to find a room together the other side of town (albeit one with a turbine-sized air-con blowing right next to them). The newly founded trio of BFFs also recommended these titles, available to watch now:

Both Naomi Ackie and Master of None S3 are utter PERFECTION. Jun 11, 2021

Show notes

Description

If you aren't on board the 'Master of None' train, then get a damned travelcard ASAP. S3 is a powerhouse - a masterclass in direction, screenplay and performance.

One of the people largely responsible for this is Naomi Ackie - who plays Alicia, Denise's wife. Their journey through the complicated and difficult IVF maze is both heartbreaking and spellbinding. She joins Tolly and Gena to talk all about it - and oh my goodness what a pleasure it was.

The shocking story behind Nailbomber: Manhunt Jun 04, 2021

Show notes

Nailbomber: Manhunt is an incredibly moving , shocking and powerful documentary about the 13 days that sent London into panic. Bombs in Brixton, Brick Lane and Soho devastated minority communites - before they found strength, fought back and helped police capture David Copeland, the man responsible for the atrocities.

Using first-person accounts, police interview footage and incredible archive, it serves as an important bookmark in British history - one that, as Tolly and Gens discuss, has been overlooked.

Joining them in this episode are Daniel Vernon, the director of Nailbomber: Manhunt and Mike Franklin - one of the people intrinsic to the capture of the bomber.

We hope you enjoy this fascinating episode.

The behind the scenes SFX secrets of Army of the Dead May 28, 2021

Show notes

'Army of the Dead' is the huge, bombastic Zombie Heist thriller from Hollywood legend Zack Snyder. Some people throw the kitchen sink at their movies, but here, Zack has made Michael Bay look like Chloe Zao. Starring Dave Bautista, it is dripping in technicolour swagger, blood, guts and a freakin' zombie tiger.

It tales a special someone to realise the epic vision of Snyder - and here, Justin Raleigh is that man. The Emmy winning sfx supremo - who's worked on Aquaman, Westworld and Suicide Squad tells Tolly and Gena just what went into making all those zombies...
