Can you believe it? Six years on, and we’ve made it to our 300th episode. Today we're joined by someone who's also familiar with the funny tricks of time: David Tennant. The former AND current Doctor joins us, live at the RSC, to talk about reprising the role in the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who, his rituals prior to performing, and why he was lying in a foetal position before his first performance of Hamlet. Things also get a bit emosh - stay tuned!

Plus: It’s all high jinx backstage, as someone forgets Ed and Geoff’s names…

This conversation was recorded at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre as part of the Live at the RSC Festival on June 3rd.
