This course was created by the actor (and very elderly gentleman) Peter Thomas. Peter starred in many major films and acted with internationally famous actors. Peter also appeared in popular TV series in the 1960s, perhaps the most famous is Dr. Who. It was talking about his time in Dr Who that - indirectly - lead to this course. Dr. Who 'died' several times and always seemed to come back albeit in a different form., Is that why he never seemed to be anxious about death?We are all going to die and no-one knows for 100% sure what then happens - so why worry?
