Dan Gibbins and Keith Kollee

Time for a deep cut! We jump all the way back to 1940 for the classic comedy The Philadelphia Story, in which Katherine Hepburn is torn between Cary Grant, James Stewart, and the shlub she's actually engaged to who isn't either and thus has no chance. Dan's delighted to present a true classic, Keith is out to get Cary Grant Twitter cancelled, but then it's time to leap forward in time to the far-future year of... um... 1956 for the full-colour musical remake, which replaces the leads with Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, and Frank Sinatra, and replaces large swathes of plot and character with whatever Cole Porter songs they could squeeze in. But also Louis Armstrong! There's no school like the old school, and this week Recovered is your headmaster. Visit the classics (question mark?) with us!
