The documentary was commissioned to commemorate the ending of the Centre's role in the Corporation's activities and the site's likely sale.

He has written a biography of the last 'classic' Doctor Who producer. JNT: The Life and Scandalous Times of John Nathan-Turner is to be published in May 2013 by Miwk Publishing. This work details Nathan-Turner's career, his difficulties with BBC superiors and alleges inappropriate behaviour by the producer.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    I’ve been in the twilight of my career longer than most people have had their career.
    Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
