Back to the Film!
Each week the Back to the Film lads sit down to chat about a different film. Back to the Film is hosted by Adam, Rob, Blue, Oliver, Alex and Andy. In each episode we discuss a movie and each give our take on the good and bad points. We all have very different tastes in films and what makes a good movie often leading to tenuously related topics being covered. Basically it's a light hearted look at different movies during which the hosts often have to be reminded to go Back to the Film! Sign up and tune in each week to get our light hearted and often chaotic look into different films.
