Diminishing Returns is a fortnightly podcast where two film-fans and a guest discuss a movie, then pitch their own ideas for the sequel.

Starring...

Allen Turing

Allen used to work in the film-industry but gave it up because it was too stressful for his delicate sensibilities. With his master's degree in Film Studies, he brings the pretence of academic credibility to the Diminishing Returns crew.

And, occasionally…

Calvin Dyson

Award-winning film-maker who now works in TV, Calvin thinks of himself as Roger Moore, but he's actually more of a Northern C-3PO. Occasional voice of Johnny-Megaplex on the show due to his tolerance and penchant for stupid, plotless action (so long as it has a strong female character or cool, fighting robots).

Favourite Genre:
Slasher Movies

Favourite Actor:
Sigourney Weaver

Favourite Film:
Psycho (1960)
