Back once again, the team review Alice Diop's award-winning Saint Omer and Georgia Oakley's Section 28 drama Blue Jean, before ripping into Margaret Thatcher for a good 20 minutes via a discussion of noted 'normal country' Great Britain.
We're talking hauntology, male dance troupes, light-to-mid gangsterism, Bill Nighy shouting into the distance, and films that can make even the saddest amongst you smile. A fun time all round...
