MCDTV: 0802

'You got what it takes', remarked Leicester tunesmiths Showaddywaddy in their 1977 top 10 smash. But which of the week's telly choices have what it takes to get a mention in this week's show?

Well, ahead of the week commencing Saturday, Feb 8, the team discuss the show they're watching; the one they're looking forward to, and their film of the week.

While Sarah opts for a Tarantino classic, Roger goes for a drama from Sicario creator Taylor Sheridan. And then, in a rug-pulling moment, Chris reveals his film of the week.

The Morgan/Crow/Daniel collective also discuss Patrick Stewart boldly going in Amazon's Star Trek spin-off Picard; Adam Sandler's gobsmacking performance in Netflix drama Uncut Gems, and a look back at a Bruce Forsyth show which set the template for prime time weekend TV.

If that's not enough to keep you hooked, there's also Chris's pick of the sporting highlights, which should be edge-of-the-seat stuff, if you're not too busy watching another choice, Richard Osman's strangely addictive BBC Two offering House of Games.

Less controversial than a Joaquin Phoenix speech at the Baftas, and almost as funny as Rebel Wilson's, this is a feast of TV and film criticism for the discerning listener.
