Episode 48: Dougal and The Dinosaurs (Featuring Dougal Dixon)
Episode 48
Thursday, 2 April, 2026
It feels like we're doing this a lot now, but Marc, Gemma and Natee are once again reviewing a new television show with CGI dinosaurs! This time, the title is simply "The Dinosaurs", a four-part miniseries on Netflix narrated by that fellow from Driving Miss Redemption of the Seven Penguins. Also, Marc has an in-depth chat with Dougal Dixon, the maestro of speculative evolution and the writer of half of all of our dinosaur books. He speaks enthousiastically about his thought processes behind his seminal 1988 The New Dinosaurs, of which a new edition is out now. Of course, Marc can't resist asking him about a certain magazine from the 90s... Is "The Dinosaurs" better than "Life On Our Planet"? What does Morgan Freeman say if he isn't allowed to use "Dynasty"? Is palaeopublishing dead? And will Gemma use this platform for shameless self-promotion? All of that in episode 48! Show Notes At Chasmosaurs! Gemma's single Queen Latvia on YouTube!
