It doesn’t come as a huge sur­prise, but I didn’t realise Michael Moorcock was a Doctor Who fan until it was recently announced he was con­trib­uting an ori­ginal novel to the tie-in range cur­rently being pub­lished by BBC Books. Here Moorcock shares his memories of the ori­ginal series and his excitement (and sense of nervousness) about his forth­coming involvement with the new incarn­ation. Too bad Moorcock didn’t write for the New Adventures series Virgin pub­lished in the nineties: he could’ve really let rip. Looking forward to this one nonetheless.
