Neil Gaiman returns to Doctor Who!

Fans were excited when they found out that Neil Gaiman would be writing an episode of Doctor Who. They knew that he would bring a spark of creativity to the show that only he could create. That episode aired during season 6 and was titled "The Doctor's Wife".

Last night, Gaiman won a Hugo Award for The Doctor's Wife in the Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form category. To make things more exciting, he shared some very big news during his acceptance speech. In the middle of his speech, Gaiman stated, "Only a fool or a mad man would try to do it again . . . so I'm on the third draft." That's right! Neil Gaiman will be returning to Doctor Who to write another episode that is currently slated to air during the second half of season 7. Gaiman did make sure to point out that The Doctor's Wife was originally written for season 5 but due to budgetary reasons it was delayed until season 6. Hopefully this does not happen to his new script.I truly cannot wait to see what he comes up with this time! Who else is excited for Neil Gaiman to write another Doctor Who episode?
