Who Should Write Doctor Who? (feat. Josh Carr) | The Says WHO Podcast #66

This week, Tip is joined by guest co-host Josh Carr to tackle one of the biggest questions facing Doctor Who: who should be writing the show? From established TV drama writers to exciting newcomers, we build a big wishlist of writers we'd love to see lend their talents to the TARDIS. We'll be discussing what makes a great Doctor Who script, the balance between experienced genre writers and fresh creative voices, and which writers from television, film, theatre and beyond could bring something completely new to the Whoniverse. 💬 What do you think of our picks? Who would you like to see write on the show? Let us know in the comments! 🔔 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you never miss an episode.
