Virgin Island, Cannes' Naked Dress Ban & Sinners

Virgin Island, Cannes' Naked Dress Ban & Sinners

Virgins, Vampires & A Very Demure, Very Mindful dress-code... what more could you want? Happy Everything Is Content day!


First up this week, we're discussing a new reality TV show that premiered on Channel 4... and Love Island it ain’t. Virgin Island follows 12 adults between the ages of 22 and 30 who have yet to have sex, as they embark on a journey of sexual self discovery on a retreat off the coast of Croatia. There are sex therapists, sex surrogates, group activities, bonding exercises, massages, solo sessions and more. Is it exploitative? Is it heartwarming? Is it too much for our prudish British sensibilities? Listen to find out!


Next up, in a very non-French move, there's an anti-nipple vendetta at one of the most glamorous events of the year. One day before the 78th film festival began, Cannes updated the official website to say that ‘For decency reasons, nudity is prohibited on the Red Carpet, as well as in any other area of the Festival.' Is this more conversative-creep? Or is just a reactionary decision based on the Bianca Censori Grammy's stunt?


And last but by no means least, Sinners. It’s been described as a Southern vampire fantasia and another incredible addition to Black horror. Michael B Jordan plays gangster twins, the “Smokestack twins’ specifically, who reconnect with their younger Blues loving cousin, Sammie, who helps them open up a juke joint. But they’re soon confronted with the absolutely menacing Jack O Connell, who plays head vampire Remmick. Soon things spiral out of control and it becomes a war between the last remaining few and the growing swarm of vampires. And they’ve just got survive the last few hours of nightfall. We give our thoughts!
