True to the episode title, in the interests of time saving, the album review was cut this week. Instead, we simply discuss Sidney Lumet's 1965 film 'The Hill'. A Short and sweet episode then? Well, it's short at the very least. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're back with our inconsistent upload schedule so expect an upcoming flood before a drought. Todays it's Jordan Peele's debut film Get Out and danish singer songwriter Agnes Obel's 2016 album Citizens Of Glass. Spoiler alert, there's some unexpected takes but disappointingly few arguments between Andy and Mark. Sure that'll be corrected in the future Hosted on Acast.

GEEERRRYYYYYYY.The elusive Si sneakily beams aboard to join Mike ( renowned service station dvd thief/opportunist) and Mark (perhaps still a touch hungover but hiding it well) to discuss Wolfgang Petersen's 1985 flick 'Enemy Mine'. Seminal sci fi classic or shonky B movie?Recorded late in the evening, perhaps the ramshackle conversation that ensued is befitting of it's subject matter. Hosted on Acast.

The boys are back again. (They were actually back a while ago but the scheduled release of this episode never happened. Oops). The episode? Andy's picks. The film is 1973's 'The Day of the Jackal' and the album is 'Masterpiece' by Big Thief. With a name like that, it's just begging for a middle of the road evaluation right? Hosted on Acast.

It's fair to say we're pretty rubbish at sustaining regular Screen and Needle podcasts. Sorry about that! Clearly, the logical thing to do when struggling to put together one podcast is throw another cheeky little side one into the mix...Here, Mark is joined by his cousin Mike (and maybe Si, if he ever shows up) to discuss, of all things, a movie. I know. HOW ORIGINAL. This week? A western. 'The Big Gundown' Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The film this week is The Trial, a surreal dystopian Kafka fantasy directed by Orson Wells and if you couldn't guess it's a Mark pick. The album is Uma Noite Romântica by João Borsch, an album that only us and 6 other people have any listened to. Never say we've not got our fingers on the pulse of popular culture! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Wills picks this week and it's a little out of the box. The tollywood worldwide hit RRR and Louis Cole's newest album 'Quality Over Opinion'. We're actually sticking to a regular release schedule for a while so listen to this and stay around for more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Andy's picks today and the screen element is a nostalgic pick. The film is not a film, it's the 1985 BBC series Edge of Darkness, starring the brilliant Bob Peck. The album is more current with Arctic Monkeys new album The Car, a band who are maybe outside of our wheelhouse but does it do enough to win us over with a new sound? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Marks picks this week and again there's no screen as it's a double needle week, Pixies new album Doggerel and Bjorks new album Fossora. Both are artists that are liked by the boys but how will their new material fare? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's been a long break but the boys are back with a twist, Will has picked a graphic novel for us to sink our teeth into. Michael Conrad's Tremor Dose to be specific. There's also avant-garde folk musician Richard Dawsons album 2020 that is reviewed for your listening pleasure! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
