With the Coronavirus forcing us all to self isolate everyone has more time to do one thing.

Knitting.

Unfortunately, like idiots, we made this podcast where we watch films, an activity nobody was doing before the pandemic and has only decreased as a result of it.

Nevertheless we pointlessly review Escape from Pretoria, a South African real life prison drama which contained none of the excitement of nailing a purl ridge stitch.

We also review Bacurau a brilliant genre bending fever dream come political allegory. Is it as good as successfully executing a herringbow lace rib? Of course not.

Plus we find time to discuss how Covid 19 has impacted the box office and give a hot take on Nicholas Cage’s latest acid infused genre piece Colour Out Of Space.
