Keith stars in an episode in Ayesha Khan’s popular Every Single Sci Fi Film series (which is available on the every podcasting app) discussing the 1933 film The Invisible Man and the original 1897 novel by H G Wells. He explores how scientific and technological advances influence literature and film making, particularly when dealing with futuristic concepts.
