The Birds

The Birds is on trial this week. A pheasant surprise or does it make us raven mad?

Alex says this horror classic showcases a director at the height of his talent, blending different genres together to make something truly unique. Dave and Mike point out the dated effects, a nonsensical plot and deeply concerning behaviour from Alfred Hitchcock towards his star Tippi Hedren.

Mike also reads the synopsis of the film in the style of a crow and there's quiz based on cinematic birds.
