As the streaming wars heat up, Disney has deployed their secret weapon: Baby Yoda.

The green puppet is a key part of the new Star Wars show, The Mandalorian, which streams on Disney+. The exact identity and purpose of the character, known only as The Child, remains unknown, but it appears to be the same species as Frank Oz's iconic Jedi master. 

Steve Newall joined Andrew Dickens to discuss the character and why it makes the show worth watching.
