Hope this becomes a long running podcast

Lovely stuff. The longer it runs the more of a great resource it will become.

Fantastic!

Fantastic podcast with great informal chat from two fun, well-informed hosts who clearly love their jobs and the act of going to the cinema itself - highly recommended!

Infectious

Errrr...when Francine Stock left The Film Programme why didn’t the BBC give this dynamic duo a call to take over?
