The seventeenth division has landed! It's a Brit-heavy episode, with opening talk about the current London production of Pinter's No Man's Land with Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen, plus the revival of 90s middle class soap Cold Feet.
And then it's down to business with new homegrown zombie film The Girl With All The Gifts (6:01) based on a book by MR Carey, which both Nick and Alastair read and loved. Next, it's the difficult eleventh series of scifi sitcom Red Dwarf (21:57), before finally crossing the Atlantic for horror sequel Blair Witch (36:59). (Some parts of Blair Witch are spoiled quite heavily. BE AFRAID.)
Finally, Britain goes to enhanced war in Nick's latest recommendation: grim WW2 superpeople comic Uber (50:07) by Kieron Gillen and Caanan White.
Our sweet sixteen! Other important milestones in this episode - Nick finishes watching Chuck after about a year and Alastair books his London Film Festival shows!
More to the point, we catch up to the zeitgeist with Netflix's scary-nostalgia-saga Stranger Things (4:05, INCLUDES ENDING SPOILERS), then go a little more specialist with Spanish subtitled film Julieta (24:04) and The Divine Comedy's new album Foreverland (34:51).
Lastly, Nick somehow hasn't seen The Fifth Element (44:18), but Alastair's latest recommendation will sort that out.
Fifteen down! Back on regular format after two reality-bending outings, starting with opening chat about Between Two Thorns by Emma Newman and the end of Outcast season 1.
We've got thoughts about the difference between now and the 2000s as we talk David Brent: Life On The Road (3:19), then the long-lost world of folklore with Cry Havoc: Mything In Action (23:08). Next, we jump right back to our own tenth episode to revisit Orange Is The New Black season 4 in its entirety (37:09) INCLUDING SPOILERS.
Last of all, it's time to get lo-fi with BBC Three's romantic-yet-squalid one-room sitcom Him & Her (57:24).
