Nick Kitchen is a writer at Kasterborous Doctor Who News and Reviews - All the latest Doctor Who news and reviews with our weekly podKast, features and interviews, and a long-running forum.

Acclaimed BBC Radio and Big Finish Writer, Eddie Robson recently spoke with the DoctorWhoThing blog about his writing career and obsession with Doctor Who. For those who may not be initiated with Big Finish, Robson has penned several highly regarded audio dramas, including Human Resources, Urgent Calls, and The Five Companions.

A few of the highlights from the interview:

On Doctor Who burnout:

“So there was a period where I was hardly watching any—I remember getting the [The Tomb of the Cybermen] DVD for Christmas and my attention sliding off the screen, I just felt I’d seen this stuff too many times.”

The Best Non-TV Who adventure:

“Human Nature. I was reading the New Adventures… I devoted my teenage years to them. But Human Nature sticks in my mind as the peak of that range.”

On which incarnation is ‘his’ Doctor:

“I find it hard to separate Hartnell, Davison and Tennant. At first I thought Smith was even better than Tennant, but now I look back and it’s easy to take for granted how great Tennant was in the part”

Robson is currently working on Series 2 of his acclaimed BBC Radio sitcom,  Welcome to Our Village, Please Invade Carefully. Read the interview in its entirety over at the DoctorWhoThing blog. Sound off below and let us know what you think of the interview and Robson’s works!
