Davies isnt afraid to present this, nor the highs and lows of his process.
Of course, theDoctor Whotitbits are very welcome.
So there are the Cybermen in the Tardis at the end ofJourneys End.
The origin segment of Davros that got cut from the final script due to special effects budget issues.
Mickeys future in Torchwood.
And then the assistant that never was, Penny, who was eventually usurped by Catherine Tates Donna.
Aside from creating the programme itself, its also fascinating to read about the world that exists around it.
Theres also the impact of his workload on the people around him, and on Davies himself.
Outside of the e-mail conversations, there are several other inclusions.
It does feel as though Cook and Davies have tried to present as complete a picture as possible here.
The bits that dont quite gel?
The vast expanses of script, too, sometimes leaves you thirsting for a little more interjection and discussion.
Truth is, we doubt hed want you to.
Over to you, Mr Moffat…
