Matt Risley – Editor
	Matt Risley is the head honcho here at OTB. He’s responsible for monitoring and leading the editorial direction, harassing PRs into giving us shiny competition prizes and exclusives, and beating the writers. His background lies in travel, videogame, TV and movie journalism. See all posts by Matt Risley
Chris Harding
	Chris Harding is the bitter hunchbacked result of genetic experimentation. His words have leaked across the pages of Dazed and Confused, the Evening Standard and Vice magazine amongst others, but he is happiest in a dark room eating dry snacks so he’s always willing to pick up a pen for OTB.

Sally McIlhone
	Sally McIlhone is one of OTB’s Roving Reviewers, that is, when she’s not spell-checking for a pseudo nudey mag (Front) or writing features that rub highbrow bankers up the wrong way (Square Mile). She’s a master of disguise, a terrible cyclist and when she was five, she thought she could be a horse when she grew up. She had a special clippety-cloppety run and everything. Don’t tell anyone though, cos they’ll probably think she’s weird. See all posts by Sally McIlhone
Sean Marland
	Sean Marland is a lowly staff writer at OTB. He is responsible for getting into the office on time, asking stupid questions and watching films & TV programmes. He has previously been involved in many different types of journalism and enjoys eating three lunches a day. See all posts by Sean Marland
Emily Moulder
	Emily is a staff writer for OTB when she’s not earning 2.1 degrees in Film. Oh yeah baby. She’s also a ladygeek who is completely addicted to the Internet. Day and night she searches for every bit of movie news she can get her grubby little hands on. Emily is also an utterly incompetent coffee maker and cannot be trusted around a pack of Oreos.

Jack McKay
	Since graduating from OTB school of penury and abuse, Jack fled North to the land of rain, coal and headbutts. He now spends his days treading the fine line between investigation and harrassment at North News, bowing down to new, more diabolical masters: The Sun, The Mirror and The News of the World.

Jez Sands
	Jez Sands is a freelance review monkey for OTB and walking L’Oreal advert. He’s worked in pretty much every job in the music biz but jacked it all in to be a journalist. He currently whores his pen out to whoever will have him (Film 24, Movie Vortex, The Fan Carpet…) knows everything about 80s cartoons and spends most of his time pretending to be Bruce Lee.

Leonie Mercedes
	Mid-way through a university course for a BA (Hons) History of Art, Leonie decided to test the journalism waters with a stint at the greatest TV and Film website in the world ever™. She has an obsession with Anna Wintour that borders on stalking, and happily throws herself at all manner of romcoms and Eddie Murphy flicks with no regard for her own mental safety. She’s also a demon on the Foosball table. See all posts by Leonie Mercedes
Danielle Jacoby
	Danielle Jacoby is the glamorous intern of OTB. Hailing from Los Angeles—yes, she is American; this audible Angelino’s heart belongs to red velvet cupcakes and sappy romantic comedies. She is a trained opera singer and self-proclaimed foodie. See all posts by Danielle Jacoby
Cheryl Freedman
	Having written on topics as varied as music, art and the world of interior decoration, OTB reviewer Cheryl Freedman now likes nothing better than putting her feet up and watching the latest nailbiting episode of Eggheads. She also enjoys playing the acoustic guitar badly, aimlessly wandering the streets of London and eating Greggs’ iced Swiss fingers. See all posts by Cheryl Freedman
