Michael Mannion - Bad Influence (1990)
Public apology to Michael Mannion for picking such an on the nose film for him - sorry Mick, I mean Michael!

Rachel Hough - Starcrossed (1985)
This week we are joined by comedian Rachel Hough to discuss all things Starcrossed (1985). If I had a nickle for every time James Spader seduced an alien I'd have two nickles, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice, right? But will James Spader teaching an alien be too much for Rachel and stop her chances of making it into the club? You can follow Rachel on Instagram: @rachelhoughfeelingsilly and buy tickets for her monthly comedy night here: TICKETS and if you come on the 2nd of Nov you might just see silly old me performing!
