Too right. I know Eccleston has (quite brilliantly IMO) made his views on RTD and his cult of...(now, I love a bit of alliteration but can't for the life of me think of another 4 letter word starting with c and with a u and a t in it that would tick the box... must be getting old...) pretty clear. I can't help think there is still more to his unhappiness about his tenure... specifically behaviour by some cast towards crew... Will be "watching that space" with interest... "Cult of c unts"..? Why didn't you just say so..?  Seems highly likely, doesn't it? The one thing i wish Eccleston had done, however, was to publicly criticise Davies' writing and the concerted effort to dumb down the programme. The artistic principles are just as important IMO. Very good point, well made. I keep forgetting I don't need to be as "careful" here as "other places"...  |

People tend to forget that Eccleston joined Doctor Who specifically because RTD was writing it, and he continued to praise RTD's writing ability as genius despite their differences. TBH, I'd forgotten that they did that drama together pre-Who - had to google it ("Second Coming"). I guess that laid the groundwork for DW? Anyway, clearly they were in a good place, once... ETA. Glad to see my status has changed. Can't really disagree with that one...  |
