The Long Game
THIS MARCH SEES Russell T Davies’s return to Doctor Who. What, already? No, not as showrunner. We’ll explain. In December 2020, in preparation for a “tweet-along” of “The Runaway Bride”, Davies rifled through a box of old papers and stumbled upon his very first script: “Mind Of The Hodiac”, a story for Colin Baker’s Sixth Doctor and Bonnie Langford’s companion Mel. It’s now been adapted for Big Finish’s range, using Davies’s full script for part one, with his seven-page treatment for part two fleshed out by Scott Handcock.
