Russell T Davies, OBE

Television producer and screenwriter

Stephen Russell Davies, better known by his pen name Russell T Davies, is a television producer and screenwriter. Initially wanting to become a comic artist, his careers adviser discouraged the idea, citing Davies’s colour-blindness as a hindrance. Instead Davies went on to study English literature and pursued his passion for script writing. His work include Torchwood, Casanova, The Second Coming, Bob & Rose and Queer as Folk. Davies is also the father of the modern Doctor Who, having been responsible for the revival of the classic British sci-fi series in 2005. Since its renewal, the show has seen resurgence in popularity at the hands of Davies. He was awarded an OBE in 2008 for his services to drama.
