"What I learned from Doctor Who was watching the credits and realizing who wrote something... oh, that's what people do, you can be a writer or be a director, but I never thought I would be able to do it." Chris Chibnall at #gally1
Chibnall started the writers room on series 11 because "from the start, I didn't want it to be about me." It "felt important" to get diverse talent in. This despite it was a legal and contractual nightmare to set up. #gally1
"I wanted everybody to feel like a team, I wanted them to make professional friendships, I wanted people who could make the show and continue to make the show across three seasons." Chibnall on the writers room set up. #gally1
