    The Double is a lo-fi, fortnightly conversation about a chosen pair of movies. Sometimes informative. Mostly not. Largely improvised. Extensively unedited. In this episode, we talk about Terry Gilliam's 'Brazil' (1985), and Paul Verhoeven's 'Robocop' (1987) - both films firmly routed in the present day! Plus more listener mail, a word from our sponsors, and some unplanned Inspector Morse chat!
