  • サマリー

  • Join Lee and Dave for lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture of yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. Should they be 'cancelled' or celebrated? What can we learn from them? Does the mention of 'Mrs Slocombe's pussy' send you into hysterical laughter or moral outrage? Or are you just as confused as us as to how we should feel? Perhaps a glass of wine would help?

    2024/10/22

    Crack open the Bolly! It's our 20th episode!! Join Lee and Dave for a lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture from yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. This week, we cast our gaze on the PR and fashion world inhabited by the icons Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone, from the classic BBC sitcom Absolutely Fabulous. In Episode 3 from Season 2, Pats and Eddy, take a trip to Marrakech. Unfortunately for Patsy, Edina's daughter Saffy tags along. What could possibly go wrong?

    Also, Lee and Dave put in an exhausting 6 hour shift in London Town. And you are live on The Problematic Gaze, please do not swear!

    You can watch Absolutely Fabulous on ITVX in the UK.

  • Episode 19: 'Threads' TV movie from 1984. Sheffield, shelters and nuclear winters.
    2024/10/15

    Join Lee and Dave for a lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture from yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. This week we struggle to find anything uplifting to say about the TV film 'Threads' from 1984. Although, considering its subject matter is nuclear armageddon, we'd challenge anyone to put a positive slant on it! The source of many a child of the 80's nightmares, 'Threads' is an unrelenting study on what can happen when two superpowers collide. We promise we'll be funny funny funny next week! That's if we're all still here.........

    Also, Lee takes a tumble. And Dave is doing nothing unsavoury whatsoever with a sheep!

    Click here to watch 'Threads' on BBC IPlayer in the UK. A word of warning. Contains extremely graphic depictions of nuclear war.

  • Episode 18: 'Heartstopper" Teen Drama from 2024. The Kids are Alright!
    2024/10/08

    Join Lee and Dave for a lighthearted look at the world of TV, Film and Popular Culture from yesteryear that has since been considered problematic. This week we unite once again in the penthouse boardroom of PG Towers. We come bang up to date to cast our gaze over the latest series of Netflix coming of age teen drama Heartstopper. How has LGBTQIA+ representation on television advanced over the decades? And what can two self confessed 'old gays' learn from Nick, Charlie and their friends? Turns out, quite a lot!

    Also, Lee's X-Rated Meryl Streep dream! And is Dave living in a secret KKK stronghold in leafy Hertfordshire?

    Heartstopper Season 3 Episode 1 is available now on Netflix.
