    Wicked Little Letters

    Wicked Little Letters

    Mel and Gaz return to review the true history behind the foul mouthed Wicked Little Letters, the movie inspired by the true story of the Littlehampton letter scandal. Plenty of cursing ahead as we critique the movie and discuss what life was really like for women in the 1920s, during a time when the suffragettes fought for equal rights. How much of the story is true to the real history? We also play a special Guess the Rotten Tomatoes score where we use the power of A.I. to generate some outrageous insults for both of us! And the results are quite something.
