Skip Back In Time

Skip Back In Time was one of the regular features on our podcast, from episodes 17-50. On each episode we would pick a year (working in reverse chronological order) and name our favourite film of that year. To avoid confusion we go by the official IMDB year of the film. To hear the justifications for each pick you'll have to listen in to the podcast.
