We Watch Anything
by Ben Strivens/Jono Scott
Ben and Jono trawl the depths of Netflix, and Amazon Prime to find the hidden gems that you may well miss. Every episode (out every two weeks) they review three movies, sometimes striking gold, often not, but always helping you to wade through the countless hours of unknown, unloved and sometimes just unwatchable programming. We Watch Anything, so you don't have to.
