Neil Gaiman confirmed
that he's written a Dr. Who episode. Neil Gaiman sent this message to SFX Weekender about winning Best Comic at the SFX Awards the following message:
"Over the years SFX, and its readers and their votes in the polls, have always been very kind to me. I thought I'd return the favour with what used to be called, in journalistic circles when I was a boy, a scoop.
As anyone who's read my blog knows, I'm a big fan of a certain long-running British SF TV series. One that started watching -- from behind the sofa -- when I was three. And while I know it's cruel to make you wait for things, in about 14 months from now, which is to say, NOT in the upcoming season but early in the one after that, it's quite possible that I might have written an episode. And if I had, it would originally have been called "The House of Nothing". But it definitely isn't called that any more.
Neil is a huge Dr. Who fan, so that makes sense. Although how he's managing to find time to write it with all the new projects he's working on and the awards he's picking up we can't imagine.
