Inside Story with Lucinda

Before becoming a full-time writer Gavin Collinson’s career lurched from campsite management to journalism and marketing within the movie industry. He later enjoyed stints working on Coronation Street and Emmerdale before working across a number of roles on Doctor Who for almost a decade. 

Since leaving the TARDIS he has written for the stage, radio, computer games and Virtual Reality experiences. He scripted 2021’s The Lonely Assassins (starring Jodie Whittaker), hailed by Engadget as ‘the best Doctor Who game ever made’ and he’s the author of the dark thriller, The Hitchcock Murders.
