Jemisin is a genius, and clearly one of the best SF writers alive. There’s something about him that evokes classic Doctor Who.”.

Neil Cross. There’s no fumbling around and no dodging difficult questions. Kill the Moon, In The Forest of the Night, Last Christmas, The Girl Who Died/The Woman Who Lived, Heaven Sent/Hell Bent, and Thin Ice are among the best things Doctor Who has ever done. Hide opens with one of the colder cold opens we’ve seen in the series so far. Did you notice how it locked her out again? I think that sense of intimacy, while still telling stories with a cosmic scope, would be very welcome in the next Chibnall series. Of these, the big one is, of course: it’s Me-ta-BEE-lis, not Me-TEB-elis, darn it! You can find the first part of our interview – in which we discussed the Steven Moffat era, the exclusive material from The Rings of Akhaten director Farren Blackburn that appears in William’s book, and more – here. Mamá. I also really like Knives Out, Little Women, and I finally caught up with Snowpiercer, which is just extraordinary. Alex Moreland is a freelance writer and television critic; you can follow him on Twitter here, or check out his website here. They feel fresh, and they make me excited to be a Doctor Who fan once again. Finally, then: what would you most like someone to take away from reading the book? Of the classic series, the Sylvester McCoy years are probably my favourite. I think he’s an outstanding choice.

Plus, it stars John Hurt, the War Doctor himself. There’s such a wonderful energy to them, such ambition, and a weirdly hypnotic rhythm to them that I just get swept up in. I think this is of great benefit to the episode, as it keeps the audience off-kilter and it lends the whole story an energy that’s positively infectious. Geek Culture | Movies, TV, Comic Books & Video Games, Alex Moreland interviews William Shaw about The Rings of Akhaten, the wider work of its writer Neil Cross, and more…. He and Moffat have clearly worked together closely, as he does as much to further Clara’s mystery as Moffat himself. I’m actually working on another piece about New Atheism, which should hopefully be out later this year. Of the guest writers of the first two-and-a-half seasons of Matt Smith’s era of the program, most are good, but only Neil Gaiman really stands out. It’s this really atmospheric ghost story which helped clarify some of what’s going on in Akhaten, and especially Hide. How would you contextualise The Rings of Akhaten in terms of his wider work? The writer revealed he had “story ideas tucked away” and that “there’s a whole bunch of stuff I want to do”. Cross has talked in interviews about how much he loves things like The Stone Tape, Sapphire and Steel, and of course both he and Gatiss have made Ghost Stories for Christmas. Cross told Stuff.co.nz that he is “really excited about writing for Peter Capaldi” – the 55-year-old actor was recently revealed as the … Way back when I was even more geeky than I am now (and, believe you and me, that’s saying a lot), I religiously rated Doctor Who stories according to a movie critic’s four-star rating system. It’s hard to say, especially as he only did two episodes of Doctor Who, but I think it might have looked similar to what Mark Gatiss, another writer bandied about for the job, would have done. What do you think Chris Chibnall might be able to learn from The Rings of Akhaten ahead of Series 13, do you think?

What does a properly post-Akhaten episode look like?

I’m also pleased to report that my latest column for the Kitchener Post is now available. A full spoilery review follows after the break. Jeanna Louise Coleman is expected to remain as Clare alongside Calapdi as the Doctor. What’s wrong with the house? are registered trademarks / copyright their respective rights holders. I recently sat down with William Shaw – a writer and blogger originally from Sheffield, now based in London, whose work has appeared in Star*Line, Space & Time, The Martian Wave, The Oxford Culture Review, and Doctor Who Magazine – to discuss his upcoming book about The Rings of Akhaten. It’s about my take on our reaction to the arrested terrorist plot this past week. Of the five episodes of the first half of the seventh season, two come on again and again (Asylum of the Daleks and, in spite of considerable flaws in its plot logic, The Angels Take Manhattan).

It’s an energetic story well told, and it pushes the season arc forward nicely. Of the fourteen episodes of the revival’s sixth season, I happily rewatch four (The Doctor’s Wife, Let’s Kill Hitler, The Girl Who Waited and The God Complex). Learning to appreciate The Rings of Akhaten has brought me no end of joy; I hope I can share that appreciation with others, and encourage them to take a leaf out of my book.

Cross previously wrote The Rings of Akhaten and Hide which were aired earlier this year. I will also eagerly look forward to other episodes written by Neil Cross, or directed by Jamie Payne. James adaptation, Whistle and I’ll Come To You. Is there anything you’re working on at the minute you’d like to tell us a little bit about?
