We talk to Kevin Martin - Video Store Owner. It's unlikely that after owning his own Video & DVD Store, The Lobby DVD Shop, for the past two decades Kevin Martin would ever think he'd become the star of a movie showing at film festivals all over the world but that's just what has happened with the release of The Last Video Store! It's a film which captures the incredible nostalgia of visiting our favourite Video Shops growing up mixed with action, horror and a whole slab of fun. Kev takes us on the journey it took to create this new film along with his own stories and memories of growing up with the excitement of picking a new film each week from the Video Shop shelves.

We talk to Laurence R. Harvey - Actor & Voice Over Artist. Whilst most of the world first laid eyes on Laurence in his role of Martin Lomax in the notorious and perhaps even more stomach churning 2011 sequel to The Human Centipede, the well versed performer had long been treading the boards of TV and Theatre before claiming his spot in Horror's hallowed iconic hall of fame. Laurence takes us on his journey through moving from the north of England to London, landing an endless array of roles right through to his current work as a much in demand voice actor on classic horror stories of days gone by. A true British Horror Legend we can be proud of.

We talk to Reeve Stimpson - Singer Songwriter. Whilst many people try, few capture the vibe, energy and magic of the 80s in a genuine way. There are many bands and artists flying the flag of arguably the greatest pop culture decade of all time but few seem to do it as well as Reeve Stimpson has proved with his recent singles. We chat about the influences which have surrounded him from an early age that have contributed to his career along with the effect of films and their defining characters which continue to shape him into the artist he is today.
