I bet when / if he gets made exec Producer he will not be so arrogant and stubborn to insist he has to write all the so-called important episodes. He will ensure that quality is paramount not egos / agendas based upon being bullied at school and a sense of victimhood.

And holding the best writers back is acceptable to you.
Thanks

What does that have to do with the Exec Producer job?

Yes, I loved the dozens of episodes of Coupling written by someone other than Moffat.

Actually this post is symptomatic of several here today - these people prefer to ridicule me than to address the serios point that I ma making - ie that VOTD was very similar in parts to The Posiedon Adventiure - even the bit with the fat woman who can't get thru some obstruction...

This is a separate thread to comment on possible plagiarism not just to comment on how bad the ep was...”

jesus wept

have you never heard of a homage also i don't like your fat woman comment,

Not sure that answered anything.

You said that RTD was holding back the best writers, but the thread was talking about the next exec producer.

If you're under the impression that RTD is not letting Moffat write for DW any more, you'll be pleased to know that Moffat has a 2-parter on the way in Season 4. Hopefully, it'll be amazing!
