Nightmare fuel is on its way with Moffat’s return. <\/p>
\u201cDoctor Who is fine without me!\u201d former showrunner Steven Moffat<\/a> declared at the Radio Times<\/strong> Covers Party, a mere two months before his return was confirmed<\/a>.<\/p>\n His comeback to write an episode in Ncuti Gatwa\u2019s new season wasn\u2019t exactly unexpected \u2013 rumours have been circulating for more than a year, with recent reports<\/a> adding fuel to the fire, no matter how many times Moffat diligently denied there was any truth to them.<\/p>\n But that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s not a godsend.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not hard to see what he means by Doctor Who<\/a> being fine without him. After Russell T Davies confirmed his surprise return to helm the 60th anniversary specials and season beyond, the show has gone from strength to strength, with a higher budget, a return from fan favourites David Tennant<\/a> and Catherine Tate, a fresh and exciting new Doctor in Ncuti Gatwa<\/a>\u00a0and a whole host of adventures to come in season 14.<\/p>\n But, as a fan who cursed Moffat\u2019s name throughout my teenage years when his reign was in full force, I\u2019ve come full circle to finally admit that, actually, he\u2019s wrong \u2013 Doctor Who needs him.<\/p>\n
