Russell T. Davies's quotes

• Before we started, we talked a lot about "eccentricity". Well, the Doctor's got two hearts. He's 900 years old. And he travels in time and space. He doesn't need funny clothes.
• [on the death of Verity Lambert] There are a hundred people in Cardiff working on Doctor Who (2005) and millions of viewers, in particular many children, who love the program that Verity helped create. This is her legacy and we will never forget that.
• There are still thousands closeted, but they are a proper little subset of gay life: 'out' 15-year-olds. It's the most magnificent shift in the whole culture.
• [on introducing gay references to Doctor Who (2005)] I keep thinking, 'Where are the headlines about this in The Sun?'. There has been a cultural shift.
• I'm ever so happy with Mine All Mine (2004). I suppose I could have written a depressing drama about cancer, but, instead, I wrote something lively, sexy and very Welsh.
• [on reality TV shows] I love them, they are just fantastically riveting and anyone who suggests otherwise is a pretentious arsehole.
• I hate the idea that I have to represent any particular section of society; I just write good telly, that's all.
• [on casting for the part of Doctor Who (2005)] It's 12 hours a day, 6 days a week for 9 months of the year. If we cast someone who was 50 they'd be dead now.
• The marvelous thing about Doctor Who (2005) is that it tells stories that no-one else can tell.
• I've never been to a convention. As much as I love Doctor Who (2005), I'm not giving up another weekend to it - I lost every weekend for six years.
• He was brilliant in that role and that show changed my career - I wouldn't have had Doctor Who (2005) without it. We auditioned every male actor under 30 in Britain for that and Aidan Gillen stole it.
• It's tough and it should be tough - it should never be easy to be given millions of pounds to make a drama. The coalition government is doing terrible things to the BBC but drama will survive even if we end up putting on a play in a backroom of a pub.
• I don't want to do more science fiction but I get offered a lot of it. Every week someone phones up saying: 'Do you want to reinvent Lost in Space (1965)?'
• [Doctor Who Magazine in 1999, on a potential revival of the series] God help anyone in charge of bringing it back - what a responsibility!
