The Physician Apr 06, 2019

Netflix has Sarah well and truly scouted. A random recommend from the service leads us to the "Arab Lands" in search of knowledge.

In the name of the King Mar 23, 2019

Show notes

Dungeon Siege is a video game that neither Sarah nor Ollie has played. This is a movie based on that game. Its also the worst movie covered so far. "Enjoy"

A Knights Tale Mar 09, 2019

Show notes

Dawn Gildenmeister joins us this week as we talk about one of our favourite films- A Knights Tale. Don't expect any sort of proper criticism here. This movie is a barrel of fun. Ollie's audio is a little funky in this but it is listenable. Enjoy!

BBC Merlin Feb 23, 2019

Our first TV show. Something Ollie avoided for ten years. Turns out....It is great!!

King Arthur Legend of the Sword Feb 09, 2019

CW: Violence against women Today Sarah and Ollie tackle a movie so bad it led to the formation of the Ifft-Decker Test. It also leads to a revision of our review scoring policy.

Timeline Jan 26, 2019

Show notes

Join us as we have our first ever special Guest- and it's Sarah's Mom! Beth Greenfeld is a wonderful lady who tells us what's what about the Science and History "romp" that is Timeline.

Tristan + Isolde Jan 12, 2019

Show notes

Romeo and Juliet? Lancelot and Guinevere? Before these famous couples we had one that was more star crossed and more betraying than both of those combined. Sit down and strap in as Sarah and Ollie discuss some of the most foolish teenagers in literary history.

The Three Musketeers (1993) Dec 29, 2018

Show notes

Buckle up as we go a little of our remit to discuss a movie that is just a barrel of fun. The Three Musketeers from 1993 starring Robin and Jack Bauer. We both loved this ridiculous movie!

Robin Hood (2010) Dec 15, 2018

Show notes

Ollie's other favourite Faux-Historical figure makes his debut on the podcast as we talk about the steaming turd that is Ridley Scott's Robin Hood. Enjoy!
