Summary

A comedy? From the 1980s? Starring mostly men? And one of those men is Christopher Guest? Once again, it’s a tough old task to work out whose pick it was for this month’s Flicking, but – entirely predictably – Mick is head over big bottom with 1984 cult classic This Is Spinal Tap, the mockumentary of a rockumentary following one of England’s loudest bands. But how does Hannah feel about the film that started a genre? And what’s that, Yosra’s got a confession to make? Turn it up to 11. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
