    Episode 5: Scooby-Doo (2002)

    Part bawdy satire, part kids' action-adventure movie, the 2002 live adaptation of the Scooby-Doo tv franchise ends up being somewhat of an odd finished product. Charlotte and Sam take a fresh look at the film and scratch beneath its (awful cgi-fur) surface and reminisce on a memorable experience watching it in the cinema and even welcome a special guest in the form of their dad.

    Episode 4: The Devil Wears Prada

    The Devil Wears Prada is a seminal work for Charlotte and Sam, from the outrageous outfits to the zingy one-liners it has been a family favourite since its 2006 release. But how does it hold up today in 2020? Does Miranda Priestly still hold the same gravitas? And are we past the noughties obsession with waistlines and being size '0'?
