89. ANDREW SMITH - Star Cop

Doctor Who: The Sirens of Audio

Andrew Smith began pitching Doctor Who story ideas to the production office when he was 14 years old, and was commissioned to write "Full Circle" for season 18 of the classic series, introducing the character of Adric.

Andrew went on to enjoy a 30 year career with the police force, and returned to writing Doctor Who for Big Finish in 2010, becoming one of their most prolific writers, penning stories across almost every range over the last 10 years.

Andrew joins us to talk about his writing, his research techniques and the life experience he infuses into his storytelling.
