3 show-specific steps to pitch Discovery
- 1
Listen before you pitch
Play recent episodes of Discovery. Listen for how BBC frames the conversation, then make your angle fit this science show.
- 2
Find how Discovery books guests
Discovery publishes no contact address in its feed and no site of its own we could read, so this one takes legwork: check the episode outros and the show notes, where plenty of science hosts read out a pitch address they never put on a page.

Lead with a specific, relevant angle
Hosts want a researcher or communicator who can make a complex finding clear and vivid. Open with one sentence on why you fit Discovery and the exact topic you would bring to an episode. See our pitch template, or write it now, prefilled for Discovery, then grade the draft against Discovery.
