This week it's a monster! We've been promising this one for a while and due to lockdown here in the UK (which let's face it - nearly everyone else is worldwide), we're having to do things a little bit different at TWRAD central. Taking to online tools, Alex & Dan dial in Howard who featured back in Season 2, to bring you his breakdown on the Star Wars Films; they cover their favourite moments, critical analyses (and there's a lot pointed at George Lucas!) and discuss whether there's life left in the franchise! Also thanks to the power of social media, they discuss some of your comments too! Strap yourself into your X-Wing, because it's a long one!
