Rich and Jimmy Watch a Film
Episode 29 - Ghost Watch (1992)
ROUND AND ROUND THE GARDEN… LIKE A TEDDY BEAR…
9:25pm, Halloween Night, 1992 - The BBC aired for the first and only time its Mockumentary “Ghost Watch”, which left audiences across the UK questioning what they had seen.
Exactly 22 years later we are sitting down to watch this Halloween classic that still lives in the memories of those who watched the “live” broadcast. We’re having a good ol’ chinwag on everything this celebrated hoax offers up, from questionable parenting and production choices to genuine scares and top-tier casting - so join the seance, sit down, dim the lights and have a listen!

So listen in as we go over everything from the sublime comedy, incredible cast, the amazing score and the varying quality of effects!

19:26|NOBODY TRUSTS ANYBODY ANYMORE…..This week we’re taking a break from the normal format and taking the show on the road! We’re in London's West End at the world famous Prince Charles Cinema for a screening of John Carpenter's “The Thing”!We discuss the amazing special effects, some of the more baffling choices of equipment for arctic researchers, and Jimmy pretty much just gushes about his favourite film and director. There is a nice little backstory to this film as well that ties into the whole start of the show so there are some nice little takeaways sprinkled throughout! There’s also some references to an idea we had for “Re-MAY-ke” month that never materialized, but maybe next year!As always we can't say thank you enough for listening and also check out all our socials and YouTube - all @richandjimmy.

01:01:50|On this very, very, special episode we watch the upcoming, multiple award winning, Indie Short; LizzieHead! As the film is still yet to be released publicly we couldn’t give too much away in the episode but we are extremely lucky to be joined on the episode by writer, producer, director MW Daniels, and lead actor Charlotte Gould, who take us through the process of creating a short film.It’s a wonderful exploration of the passion and creativity involved in seeing a project like filmmaking through to completion and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did, or even better: find something to take away from the discussions!#lizziehead #shortfilm #comedy #indiefilm #awardwinningshort #quirky #offbeat #richandjimmyThe Lost Episodes #4 - Midsommar (2019)
32:51|SKOAL!!!!!!!In the final instalment of our “Lost Episode” series, we’re getting very down and dark with Ari Asters MIDSOMMAR. We discuss the beautiful aesthetic and unsettling vibe of the film, as well as some odd choices in effects and ultimately realize that maybe we’re not horror-compatible!!As always we can't say thank you enough for listening and also check out all our socials and YouTube - all @richandjimmy.

21:09|WHOAH, THAT’S A BIG PLANE……This week we’re releasing the long-lost episode covering the wonderfully silly, disaster flick - 2012! (A film not known for its quotes).We originally recorded this around the 1 year anniversary of the show (happy belated birthday to us!), and we had a myriad of issues with the recording from recorders dying and wiping audio from the SD cards to forgetting to hit record! There’s also a host of gimmicks and references from older formats that all come together to make an episode as mad and chaotic as the Apocalypse! So…. enjoy ?As always we can't say thank you enough for listening and also check out all our socials and YouTube - all @richandjimmy.
