New RTD interview (Media Guardian)

[Milky Tears]

Some interesting bits (as usual):


'I can be very bolshie'

He plans to be writing for the chattering cyclops for decades yet. "I don't have any big ambitions except to carry on writing stories for telly." Including Doctor Who? "Yes. We've set it up in such a way that it should be around for 20-30 years yet. Within that timeframe there will be year-long hiatuses to give it a chance to get its momentum back."

[Si Hunt]

In all fairness, this comment is fantastic news!

Si.

True, and it's a very interesting interview - the bits about his parents are both very funny but also very touching. For all that we all have our own opinions about what is and isn't good about Doctor Who, we're amazingly lucky to have such a talented, clever, canny bloke involved with it

Although the fanboy in me has to ask... is boyfriend Andrew Smith the same one as wrote Full Circle? I'm sure it's not, but it did make me smile for a minute.

I love the way he's there to talk about Sarah Jane Adventures for kids, and goes into talking about fisting and rimming.

It's that secret agenda again. I'm going to be keeping a close eye on Luke and Clyde.

Aren't they the two blonde guys in The Mysterious Planet?
