11:00 - 12:00 Bums on Seats
The last show of 2012 takes a deep breath and attempts to squeeze in cinema's past 12 months by choosing its favourite films of the year. Six reviewers will countdown the 12 films that Bums On Seats feels were the highlights of the year. Will bruising French drama battle off superheroes? How did Bela Tarr fare against Ted? Is there a place for the Dardenne's, the Berberians, the Hobbitses, the many McConaugheys, the multiple Lavant's or the Princess Of Mars?
Toby Miller is host, with reviewers Jenny Colley, Simon West, Jim Ross, Dave Riley, Mark Liversidge and Owen Baker on hand to voice their opinion of why each chosen film deserves to celebrated. Programme Website
