01/01/18 • 55 min

For their first Bank Holiday special, and in true typical British fashion, The Brothers McGhee decided it was time to tackle a Bond film; namely Roger Moore’s swansong, A View To A Kill! Join Charlie & George as they prepare to dance into the fire, discuss bad facelifts, French stereotypes, not-so-subtle stuntmen and their love for Christopher.......Walken. As usual, there’s plenty of production, casting and location trivia, plus lots of bad impressions as the hosts try and out-Walken each other. Enjoy and please share!

Episode 12 - Gremlins Christmas Special

In this Christmas Special episode, Charlie and George break all the rules as they navigate the crazy chaos of cult classics Gremlins and Gremlins 2: The New Batch. There's drinking, bad behaviour and swearing and that's just the hosts! Their post midnight ramble covers everything from the Spielberg touch, the perils of using monkeys as a special effect, Hulk Hogan and double breasted dressing gowns.

Whether its the comedy-horror-satire of the first film or the highly acclaimed post-modern sequel, these are two films that have stood the test of time and are definitely worth a revisit.
