Big Finish Chairman and Executive Producer Jason Haigh-Ellery said: “What Scott has achieved at Big Finish and in his TV career so far has been astonishing - he has always found new ways of telling stories and helped to craft some of our best scripts.

“I am so excited that he has been given the position of Script Editor on Doctor Who working with the wonderful Russell T Davies. I can’t wait to see what the two of them come up with!”

Creative Director and Executive Producer Nicholas Briggs added: “It’s tremendous news that Scott is the script editor on the new Doctor Who TV series. He’s been so prolific and creative with Big Finish over many years. I’ve had the pleasure of working with him, when he’s been both producing and script editing, and I’ve always been impressed by his problem-solving capabilities, professionalism and sheer enthusiasm for his work.

“Bad Wolf is lucky to have him, and we will miss him. Luckily, we’re still in touch as friends, so I don’t feel too bereft!”
