Bonus Episode: Series 11 News Brief with Kate Kulzick

Alasdair is in Chicago, so he stopped by Allison's apartment to record a bunch of episodes. First up, here's a half-hour's worth of series 11 discussion with friend of the show Kate Kulzick, in which we break down the recent news that incoming showrunner Chris Chibnall is considering a switch to 10 hour-long episodes instead of the traditional 45-minute format. While this sounds like a simple bit of arithmetic, we use this as an excuse to take a deep look at Chibnall's Who resume, the difference in pacing stories at those various lengths, and what two-parters actually work as 90-minute stories in the first place.
