Mark Gatiss has his feet so far under the table with the BBC that it's hard to imagine him not replacing Moffat as executive producer and lead writer when he calls it a day. If I were a bookmaker I wouldn't even be taking odds.

I agree. And good. Variable as his episodes might have been he is the only feasible successor for the crown and would make a great show runner i reckon. It makes sense in the same way RTD handing over to Moffat did.

also that 'quote' sounds about as Gatiss-esque as Moffats do. Ie not very at all.

Its his for the taking when the day comes. That said I still think and hope that day is further away then some imagine.

While I hope Mark continues to write for Doctor Who I would much prefer Toby Whithouse to take the reins as future showrunner.

I love Mark Gaitiss, think he'd make a good replacement. I can I can't!
