On the 24th of December 2016, news outlets around the world reported that Carrie Fisher, movie star and cultural icon had suffered a heart attack on a flight from London to LosAngeles, a few days later on the 27th of December she died. Her mother, the golden age movie star and cultural icon Debbie Reynolds died the next day from a stroke. Reportedly, in the wake of Carrie Fisher's death, she had said 'I want to be with Carrie' who she also named as her best friend. Tonight on they don't make 'em like they used to we dedicate our entire show (format and everything) to two ladies from one family who indelibly left their mark on the world.

On the show tonight, Marlon Brando Sings!!! That one clue is enough for many to figure out what film we are talking about, also Mario Lanza Sings!!! although we never get to see the poor bloke in the film and finally David Bowie Sings!!! along with a package that you would have thought many people would have been uncomfortable with having in a Children’s film. Welcome to They Don’t Make ‘em Like They Used To.

This evening, it all starts on the page and in the bookshop. we pay tribute to those stories that started without thought of a silver screen in mind.

After what seems like an age, becausse it has been, we are back in the studio. Tackiling a phantom movie. Phantom not because it stars a certain masked singing man, Phantom not because it's a billy zane starring movie that my brother would never forgive me for mentioning on a radio show about good movies, but phantom because none of us seem to know how it ended up on our list. Stay tuned, and all will be revealed. Welcome to They Don't Make 'em Like They Used To. Movies discussed The Lady Vanishes, It's a Wonderful Life, The Gospel according To Matthew, Kingdom of Heaven

This evening, it’s the 1920s in Hollywood California, and this new fad called talkies is wreaking havoc everywhere, … in song. it’s the 1800s and a young girl who would later be known as ‘the best man on an ill fated ship’, fights, bites and scratches her way through life, and it’s back. Just like the man in the title, we once again find ourselves attracted like magic to the desert, perhaps because it’s clean. Welcome to They Don’t Make 'em Like They Used To.

Welcome to They Don’t make ‘em like they used to.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Had to get that in before it was February. This evening we visit an english rose clashing with an American Beefcake down south in the U S of A. At least one of us is shocked to find that Michael Winner is unfairly maligned as a filmmaker and in Honour of Somebody who will be dearly, dearly missed from the film world, we look at a space romp that flies in the face of our titular rule. Welcome to They Don’t Make Em like they Used to

The section of the show where we give the old movies a rest for a bit and focus on films you can watch in the cinemas right now.

Christmas Special - Favourite Christmas movies in the Hospital by Tosin Ajayi

The last half hour of our show, where we recommend (or not)films that we've seen recently.

This week, we find out what happens when the a Glaswegian ginger lass meets a Bahamian screen legend, take a sojourn to the clean, clean desert and we find a master of suspense in darkly hilarious form. Welcome to They don’t make ‘em like they Used To.

In a week where we are told that the Lord’s prayer is not allowed to be played before movies at your local cinema, we talk about a movie whose existence is arguably due to a shed load of Prayer; we hunt down some WOORRREEEOOOORS, and invite them to COME OUT AND PLAAYEE-YAY!!! We meet Nicola in the hospital who gives us one of the funkiest tunes that we’ve played for a while, and we talk about one of the films that we are frankly ashamed to say was filmed on the Isle of Wight. Welcome to They Don’t Make ‘em Like They Used To. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Films discussed The Inn of the Sixth Happiness The Exorcist The Warriors Guest House Paradiso

This week, we wonder what the chances of anything ever coming from Mars are, we get in a filmic muddle involving Paul Newman, Don Ameche, David Niven and Warren Beatty with some Chris Rock thrown in for good measure, ... and it had to happen at some point. we finally address the massive Elephant that has overshadowed the entire cinematic year of 2015 in the shape of a little space opera being released in December. Welcome to They Don’t Make ‘em Like they Used To.

This week, we spend time with Anarchic yoofs in a non time specific London, hang around inside the predictably weird mind of the man who created The Exorcist, and I have a talk with someone whose lived through more eras of film than I can ever read about. Welcome to They Don't Make 'Em like they Used To.

It's Halloween and as is fitting, we theme the show accordingly.

In 2015, we have marked 200 years since the battle of Waterloo, On the 25th of October we mark 600 years since the battle of Agin court, sharing the same date as that battle is the Cahrge of the Light Brigade during the crimean war, and we also mark 100 years since the battle of Gallipoli. Welcome to the Battle marking special of They don’t make ‘em like they used to. Film's discussed - Henry V (1944), Charge of the Light Brigade, Charlie Chaplin, The Water Diviner

As God is our witness, this week we frankly give a damn and tackle the (inflation adjusted) highest grossing movie of all time. Take an early look at a fresh faced Jeff Bridges, and we ponder the question of what Spaghetti westerns would have been called if they had been filmed in a country besides Spain (yep, you read that right). Welcome to They Don't Make 'em Like They Used To.

This Week, We look at the man who ushered in a new era of matinee Idol in the 50s, spend some time in the 70s with a movie that Quentin Tarantino cites as one of his favourites, so much so that he named his company after it, And zoom forward in time to the nougties with a film that qualifies both as an Island movie and as an exception to out titular rule. Welcome to They Don’t Make ‘em Like They Used To.

Tonight, we are in the home of the road. Might not have been invented there, but there is arguably no country that has embraced the road like the good old US of A. And Hollywood noticed, resulting in one of the most recognisable movie genres, the road movie. Tonight we have screwball comedy on the road in the 30s, existential youth culture on the road in the 70s, and Girl power on a crime spree on the road in the 90s. It’s going to be fun, Welcome to They Don’t Make ‘Em Like they Used To.

First we had Jack Nicholson, then Paul Newman and this week, Burt Reynolds joins our inadvertent series of “Movie-star-against-the-big-bad-institution-they-find-themselves-locked-up-in.” On our saunters around the hospital, we meet Leonard who had this to say about some of his favourite movie actors “It was a bunch of men and women who ran around and made about 10 comedies“ have a listen (or just read the name of the track) and see your guess about who he’s talking about is right. Welcome to They Don’t Make ‘em Like They Used To.

Today, What we have here is failure to communicate. Something that Lee Marvin could very possibly have said to Toshiba Mifune on Island in the Pacific, also Truman Capote makes his first and only movie appearance as an actor. All this and more coming up in the next hour. Welcome, to They Don’t Make ‘em Like They Used To.

This Evening on your nostalgic one stop for movies of yesteryear, We look at the mental hospital that ruled the Oscar roost of 1975, follow Harvey Keitel as he chases David Carradine all over Napoleon’s France looking for a fight in a role that’s almost as unexpected as those direct line adverts and we visit probably the most filmed island in Hollywood History. Welcome to They Don't Make 'em Like They Used To. http://www.toesin.com/dmeltut.html

This week, It’s book to film hour, as almost all the films we discuss started life as dead trees. We spend sometime with Peter Sellers in what is largely regarded his final film performance, go on the run from the domed city because there is life after 30, and Nature or Nuture? We ponder that question with Tilda Swinton. Welcome to They don’t Make ‘em Like they Used To. Films discussed LOGAN'S RUN - Michael York, Jenny Agutter, Peter Ustinov BEING THERE - Peter Sellers, Shirley Maclaine DAMBUSTERS - Richard Todd WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN - Tlida Swinton, Ezra Miller, John C. Reilly
