The 250 show

Summary: Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, The 250 is a fortnightly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released every second Saturday at 6pm GMT, with the occasional bonus episode between them. This week, a special crossover episode with When Irish Eyes Are Watching, an Irish film podcast wherein Alex, Clíona and Séan take at a look at films connected to the Emerald Isle. Together, they are covering Mel Gibson’s Braveheart. A pseudo-historical epic, Braveheart follows William Wallace as he prepares to lead Scotland to its independence from the British crown. At time of recording, it was ranked the 75th best movie of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
