Feel like you’ve seen this episode before? Once the undisputed kings of the video rental market, the demise of Blockbuster heralded the start of the age of streaming giants: from Netflix to Disney+, and even Quibi (RIP). Now we can watch whatever we want, wherever we are...without a single teenager telling us that the VHS of Face/Off is "essential viewing".

Join comedian and computer scientist Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani as they consider why ‘data driven content’ might not be such a wild idea, and investigate how tech-backed content platforms are using their vast supply of big data about our viewing habits to produce dozens of films with ‘love’ in the title.

Can they be stopped on their endless quest to create the most algorithmically perfect show in existence? Perhaps, but only once we’ve all finished watching The Office for the 100th time this year.
