This week we take a jolly holiday and break down who almost starred in the Disney classic Mary Poppins! Which two-time Oscar winner did Walt Disney want for the titular nanny? Which actors did Dick Van Dyke think would have been a better fit as Bert? And did Poppins kill all those other nannies? Also – Tenet rips off Mary Poppins and Amy Jo explains why you should never watch Saving Mr. Banks on a plane!
Mary Poppins stars Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke, David Tomilson, Glynis Johns, Karen Dotrice, Matthew Garber, Reginald Owen, and Ed Wynn; directed by Robert Stevenson
