Birgit Meier was a 40 year old woman who went missing from her apartment in the small town of Breitling, Lower Saxony, Germany in 1989. Her disappearance sparked a frustrating police investigation and serves as the basis for the Netflix documentary Dig Deeper: The Disappearance of Birgit Meier. In 4 one-hour parts, I can't say that I've been this invested, shocked and ...

Lark Rise to Candleford is a British costume drama about a tiny Yorkshire hamlet and its relationship with a nearby middle-class town. It's quite simply the cutest, most twee garbage you'll ever set your eyes on. When this first aired on the BBC in 2008, it didn't impress on me how refreshingly calm it is. It's also fascinating how popular a TV show can be that can bas...

Come Outside is a British educational kids TV show which ran from 1993 to 1997 and perhaps not-so-surprisingly continued to air for another 15 years afterwards.
As an infant when this first appeared on the BBC, I was utterly enamoured with the show's host Auntie Mabel, as she would fly around the UK with her dog Pippin to teach us about everything from wast...

Harris Glenn Milstead, better known by his stage name Divine, was an American actor and drag queen most known for working with filmmaker John Waters. Nova and I had a deep-dive into Divine movies a few years ago where we watched the whole catalogue spanning the early 16mm shitters right through to Hairspray, which would parlay Divine's c...

Looking For Mike is a 2016 documentary short directed by a Canadian man named Dylan Reibling. Alongside a private investigator, Reibling chronicles the search for the true identity of his co-worker Mike de Bourcier, who had planned his own funeral a week before dying of a heart attack in 2002. He soon realises that the man was also living under a stolen identity.
We've finally managed to bypass the copyright disaster that we've encountered with our recent video reacting to our episode of Couples Come Dine With Me, so the original post should now feature the working version.
Thanks for being patient with us, puffins 💕
I shall now be enjoying some pizza.

Showgirls is a 1995 American erotic drama film starring Elizabeth Berkley's labia. It is to date, the only NC-17 movie given a wide release (ahem) in the USA. United Artists sent an army of security out to theatres to make sure minors wouldn't sneak in to see it. Berkley stars as Nomi Malone, a sex worker turned exotic dancer who climbs the Vegas hierarchy to become a ...

In London in March of 2006, six men fell foul of a catastrophic biopharmaceutical trial when a drug called TGN1412, developed to treat a kind of leukemia, caused them to go into multiple organ failure and develop an appearance that led to them being referred to as "The Elephant Men".
The disastrous trial would go on to drastically change how drug testing would be carried out in the ...

On February 2nd 2022, Netflix released a documentary that is so fiendish in its setup that it can do NOTHING but ensnare the viewer into the hideous web of lies that its main antagonist would spin around the victims at the heart of the story. The final 20 minutes of this film make up arguably the most satisfying ending to anything that I've ever seen, as Simon - the namesake of the documentary,...

Sister Act is a 1992 American comedy film starring WHOOPI. There's a less-than-sub-par sequel which obviously we'll discuss in today's pod because I always watch them both as a double bill, but I've decided this is worthy of an episode because it's a lovely feel-good picture about nuns.
There's a handful of movies that I'll always put on of a rainy afternoon and ...
