This week, something completely different to anything we've done before, as a 1950's B-movie is turned into a comedy for all time, while sticking surprisingly close to the original's story, script and even performances.

Zero Hour! is a straightforward slice of mid-budget disaster movie, as a former military pilot has to use his long-dormant skills to save a flight beleagured by food poinsoning and a storm, while carrying his estranged wife and son as passengers. None of the team had seen this before, so the question going in was: would it stand a chance of still working on its own terms, or would it become laughable...

...because the second film we're discussing needs little introduction. Considered by many to be the funniest film ever made, Airplane! is a Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker classic. It's also more than forty years old now so, returning to it, has the comedy aged, fallen out of favour, or is it still as relentlessly hilarious as we all remember it to be?

Along the way, we get a bit sidetracked into a discussion of what became of the big budget spoof in the years after AIrplane!, from the Naked Gun and Hot Shots films, through to today.
