Since leaving the TARDIS he’s written for the stage, radio, computer games and Virtual Reality experiences. He scripted 2021’s The Lonely Assassins (starring Jodie Whittaker), hailed by Engadget as ‘the best Doctor Who game ever made’ and he’s the author of the dark thriller, The Hitchcock Murders.
A fan of classic film/TV he’s delivered talks and events on topics ranging from James Bond, Sherlock Holmes and Ghostwatch, to Leni Riefenstahl and Alfred Hitchcock.
