Кристофер Бидмид: Ұлыбританиялық жазушы және «Доктор Кто» авторы

British writer and journalist

Christopher Hamilton Bidmead (born 18 January 1941) is an English screenwriter, script editor and journalist.

Bidmead trained as an actor at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA), later playing several roles on stage, television and radio.

By the early 1970s, Bidmead was scriptwriting for Thames Television, producing material for Harriet's Back in Town and Rooms. Up until 1979, he was a journalist, and contributed some articles to New Scientist.

In 1979, Robert Banks Stewart recommended him for the post of script editor on Doctor Who. Bidmead was primarily responsible for a "back to basics" approach for his yearlong tenure on Doctor Who, attempting to curb the more playful and fantasy oriented approach of his predecessor Douglas Adams in favour of a more naturalistic and scientific style of presentation. In August 2006, it was announced in Doctor Who Magazine that Bidmead would be writing a Doctor Who audio play, Renaissance of the Daleks, for release through Big Finish Productions in March 2007. An audio play with that title was subsequently released, with a "From a Story By" credit for Bidmead. In recent years he has contributed voiceover commentaries and interviews for numerous DVD and Blu ray releases of Doctor Who serials with which he was involved.

Bidmead has continued his career in computer journalism, writing regularly (as Chris Bidmead) for Personal Computer World, PC Plus and other computer magazines, and specialising in Linux tools. Occasionally he has contributed more speculative or philosophical pieces for publications such as New Scientist, and recently he has worked as a journalist producing material for Wired magazine.

Submitted on 19 June 1984, it would see the Doctor losing some of his memories throughout time. He would adapt the story for Big Finish Productions in June 2010.

Also known as The Last Adventure, this four part story was submitted on 29 October 1986 as a story for the Trial of a Time Lord season. The story would see the Doctor on trial by the Time Lords for investigating the planet Pinacotheca, which has a museum showing places and times in the universe.
