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

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?

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.
