  Writer for Doctor Who, 1987-1989

Stephen Wyatt wrote Paradise Towers and The Greatest Show in the Galaxy for Sylvester McCoy’s Doctor. When they were broadcast they received a mixed reaction from fans, but over time have become firm favourites.

Robert Dick chats to Stephen about this reappraisal and how he now embraces his involvement in the programme.

They also discuss Stephen’s highly successful career as a writer for radio, theatre and television. Stephen is the only writer to have won the Tinniswood Award for best original radio script twice!

A fascinating interview with one of the writers that brought a fresh, new approach to Doctor Who during the Sylvester McCoy era.
