I just hope one day someone like RTD finds the time to write a similar book so we can get some insight into what its really like to be the show runner and head writer of New Who. I imagine it would be a great read.

No, that was written by RTD, not somebody like him.

Sorry. It was late and I was grumpy and being facetious. Apologies all.

I don't think there's anyone more like RTD than RTD, is there?

Not sure...

I believe he once entered a RTD impersonators competition and came third!

Mr.Tumble...he's a bit like him. Sort of...

Maybe he could be the next showrunner and write a book?

This looks really interesting, I've always been really interested in the screenwriting process; writing for something like Doctor Who would be my dream job.

As a really self-indulgent side note, I recently won a script-writing award which was judged by the current Doctor Who script editor
