Two middle-aged dudes talk 50 Shades and it’s sequel.
Allen and Chris get sexy in this post Valentine's special by watching the smash-hit film adaptations of EL James’ 2 err...smash-hit books. It started off as Twilight fan fiction before being reshaped into the non-supernatural tale of a virgin and a kinky billionaire. As the third film, Fifty Shades Freed, is released- the Fifty Shades series is undoubtedly a cultural juggernaut, but are they good films?
No, obviously. But we watched the first two instalments anyway.
In this episode:
Flu remedies
Anastasia’s educational prowess
Christian Grey is good at two things
Kim Basinger’s previous work in the field
Research!
Lots of giggling about sex stuff
And what Sci-Fi series really gets Christian off…..
Remind yourself of the films here
