Bio: Steven Moffat was born on November 18, 1961 in Paisley, Scotland, UK. He is a writer and producer, known for Doctor Who (2005), Sherlock (2010) and The Adventures of Tintin (2011). He has been married to Sue Vertue since 1999. They have two children. He was previously married to Maggie.

Tivia: The original Doctor Who (1963) series inspired Moffat to become a writer.He graduated with a degree in English from the University of Glasgow and worked as a teacher before becoming a successful writer.Like David Tennant, he is a huge fan of Peter Davison's Fifth Doctor. Moffat was one of the principal interviewees for the Davison-era Doctor Who (1963) documentary Come in Number Five (2011). He also stated in an interview in 1995 that he thought Davison was the best actor to have played the Doctor.He is the son of Bill Moffat and the son-in-law of Beryl Vertue, who was the executive producer of Coupling (2000). His children are called Louis and Joshua.He was originally going to write The Crimson Horror (2013), but he realized he would not be able to and called his "old friend" Mark Gatiss.He was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the 2015 Queen's Birthday Honours List for his services to Drama. He is a television writer in London, England.He was asked to write Daleks in Manhattan (2007)/Evolution of the Daleks (2007), but he was busy with _Jekyll_. When it became clear that he wouldn't be able to write the Dalek two-parter, he volunteered to write the Doctor-lite episode of the season. That turned out to be Blink (2007), one of the most beloved episodes of Doctor Who (2005).He is so ashamed of his sitcom Chalk (1997) that he refuses to even name the series, joking that he might get attacked in the street. The series earned the dubious distinction of being named by the British newspaper Metro as one of the "10 sitcoms even worse than The Wright Way (2013)".He named The Beast Below (2010) as his least favourite Doctor Who (2005) he wrote, calling it "a bit of a mess".During production of the second series of Press Gang (1989), Moffat was experiencing an unhappy personal life as a result of the break-up of his first marriage. The producer was secretly phoning his friends at home to check on his state. His wife's new lover was represented in The Big Finish? (1990) by the character Brian Magboy (Simon Schatzberger), a name inspired by Brian: Maggie's boy. Moffat brought in the character so that all sorts of unfortunate things would happen to him, such as having a typewriter dropped on his foot.In 1999, he was one of the writers asked to write Doctor Who (1963) audio plays for Big Finish. He was only interested in writing for the Eighth Doctor Paul McGann, who hadn't signed on yet, so he dropped out. He has since written a short story for one of Big Finish's Bernice Summerfield anthologies.As well as being thanked in the book's foreword for plotting Dr Smith's fantasy story, Moffat was rewarded with a cameo in Paul Cornell's 1995 Seventh Doctor novel "Human Nature" as Mr Moffat, bibulous bursar at Hulton College School: "a Scotsman with curly hair and a permanently perplexed eyes.".

Trademarks: Putting Doctor Who references in scripts for other series His main characters often hold a lengthy, humorous and sometimes emotional speech to emphasize their personal view or to provoke a change of heart to others. His complex and sometimes confusing storylines Non-linear storytelling
Quotes: You're guaranteed to be lucky several times in your life-it's what you do with it. Young writers spend all their time worrying, in a way that David Gerrold did not and I did not. How do they get to meet the right people? How do they get to the right parties? If only someone would read my script... Forget all that. All these things are easy and will happen. The way you get your script to the right people is that you put it in an envelope. It's fucking easy. The difficult bit is writing something that is so good people will take a punt on a brand new writer. That's it-you have to write an absolutely terrific script. <br /> <hr> I've been dreaming of writing for Dr Who (Doctor Who (2005)) since I was seven. <br /> <hr> There are no bad feelings between Spielberg (Steven Spielberg) and me, but Doctor Who (2005) has to come before Hollywood. I am working on scripts to be filmed next year. Russell T. Davies is doing four specials next, then my shows will begin. I talked to Steven and he completely understood. Steven is a fan and he understood my passion for the series completely. <br /> <hr> I really enjoyed Peter's (Peter Davison) Doctor. I said sometimes, he's underrated as the Doctor - although not after "Time Crash" (Time Crash (2007)), that's for sure. I think he's a brilliant Doctor... He paved the way for the younger, more reckless Doctors... He is the first modern Doctor... Before Davison, he was always the father figure, and suddenly the Doctor became your reckless mate... The Doctor always doesn't know what he's doing, he just hopes he can get away with it. <br /> <hr> It's aimed at kids and adults. And why should anyone care about this? If you watch it, then it's for you. It shouldn't matter. I mean the specific thing about it being a children's program is that it follows the imperatives and narrative rules and the joy of children's fiction. If you watch Doctor Who (2005) at 9 pm at night (as you do in the United States) it's going to seem a bit odd. It's energetic. The Doctor walks straight out of the TARDIS and into trouble, and you accept it. The Master becomes Prime Minister of Britain, and you accept it. It's got all the brio and vigour of Harry Potter, Narnia and Star Wars. That doesn't mean it doesn't appeal to adults. Star Wars, the most successful film franchise ever, is explicitly for children, but adults love it. Doctor Who (2005) is my favorite thing in the world. If you're in Britain, we'll show you the sticker books and the lunchboxes. In the schoolyard on Monday, they're all talking about Doctor Who (2005). That doesn't mean it's childish. It's very sophisticated.
