In this episode Jim and Adam look back at Danny Boyle's directorial debut Shallow Grave (1994).
When accountant David (Christopher Eccleston), doctor Juliet (Kerry Fox) and journalist Alex (Ewan McGregor) are searching for a fourth roommate for their trendy flat, they settle on the aloof Hugo (Keith Allen). However, they soon find Hugo dead of a drug overdose, beside a large sum of cash.
The film is being screened at Cineworld Cinemas (14 May 2024) to celebrate its 30th anniversary and part of their Danny Boyle season.
Jim also speaks with writer Irvine Welsh and director Ian Jefferies about Choose Irvine, the documentary about Irvine's work which screened last year at the Edinburgh International Film Festival (This interview was recorded in June 2023).

As always each recording is filled with spoilers, silliness, bad language and tangents a-aplenty.
