episode #57 Pitching a Doctor Who Movie (feat. Josh Carr) cover

Description

This week marks the 30th anniversary of the first Mission: Impossible movie, a movie franchise adapted from an iconic '60s TV series. Which got us thinking... What if a certain other iconic TV series that started in the '60s made the jump to the big screen? To help us with this little thought experiment, we've recruited the lovely Josh Carr of the Who Knew? podcast! So sit back, relax, and get the popcorn out, as we take a trip to the Who-vies. 💬 How would YOU make a Doctor Who movie? Let us know in the comments!🔔 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you never miss an episode. Next week, we'll be joined by another special guest - the brilliant Phil Hawkins, to celebrate 30 years of the TV movie. Josh Carr is the host of the Who Knew? podcast, where he sits down to chat with wonderful people in and around the world of Doctor Who. Josh has also written the final episode of Dominic G. Martin's fan audio series Doctor Who: Remnants, which will be released later this year.

#63 The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon REVIEW

A dramatic death. An impossible mystery. And an incredibly forgettable monster (in the best way possible!). This week marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, so Kat & Tip are travelling across the pond to revisit Steven Moffat's blockbuster Series 6 opener, The Impossible Astronaut and Day of the Moon. Expect oodles of mysteries, creepy villains, big reveals, and plenty to debate along the way. 💬 What are your thoughts on this story?

#62 Villains That Should Return

Doctor Who has one of the richest rogues galleries in all of fiction, but whilst some villains seem to return every other series, others have been left gathering dust in the Time Vortex. This week, Kat & Tip dive into the villains they think deserve another shot at the spotlight. From classic-era foes crying out for a modern revival to New Who creations that vanished too soon, we're pitching our dream returns and discussing how these characters could be reintroduced for a new generation of fans. 💬 Which villains would you like to see make a comeback?
