Cold Storage VS Mr Nobody Against Putin; Crime 101 VS Bridgeton S4

·1 hr 1 min·4 clips

The town in Mr Nobody Against Putin has a life expectancy of 39 near a copper processing plant.

Okay, cinema first. Tosin opens with the usual Netflix vs Cinema deal: go out, stay in, score both out of five, and see where the money felt better spent. Sean is away. Sharon is still on the Isle of Wight, Holly checks in from London, and the room loosens up with a sideways bit about online arguments and racist comments. Then the film gets its turn. This stretch is not a solemn review; it is the panel having fun spotting the genre fingerprints. Teeth, sniffing, bikers, bunkers, and people somehow avoiding the obvious word all get picked over. World War Z comes up. So do George Romero, Dawn of the Dead, and Day of the Dead, more like excited shout-outs than homework. Nobody tries to crown it as art. That is part of the appeal: an hour and a half of craziness that knows what it is borrowing, jokes with it, and still gives the room a romp. Tosin sounds pleased by the energy. He says it sat high on his list, partly because running time matters now when choosing a cinema trip. The table stays loose. A family interruption lands, gets absorbed, and the show carries on because that is the texture here. Near the end, the chat swings back online. Bad spelling gets tied to abuse as a joke, the internet gets treated as a thing everyone keeps discovering the hard way, and Instagram is open for arguments. Masterpiece or rubbish, bring the comments. Just do not be racist, and maybe spell it properly.

As heard by us

A loose, funny panel makes the case that zombie mayhem still earns its cinema seat.

The episode leans into its familiar big-screen-versus-streaming setup and plays it as a lively panel conversation, with Tosin steering Sharon and Holly through a film debate that keeps circling back to whether the cinema trip was worth it.
