The New Year looks set to be a busy one with an ongoing script project with Paul Cole, two major comedy biographies and a couple of reference works in the pipeline.

Hanging out with Sixth Doctor, Colin Baker, during his pantomime role as Fleshcreep in ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. All together now: “Let’s do the Time Warp again!”.

The final farewell to David Tennant’s Time Lord in ‘Doctor Who’. A touching, rollicking, heart-pounding and beautifully acted television treat. John Simm turns in a nicely controlled turn as the Master but all honours are stolen by Bernard Cribbins as Wilf. An amazing performance. Give that man a Knighthood.
