I'm perhaps jumping the gun but Bobby has come up with a new villain character for Doctor Who called The Whirlygirg and he thinks I should have some sort of credit as a co-creator for my input in the opening credits but I don't think that the BBC or Disney will use "Juan Kerr" on their screen for a kids science fiction show…well, wait, it is 2024
Anywho's I can't think of anything because I lack imagination and that
je ne sais quoi
which would make someone stand out as being worthy of being listening to regarding a quality story being told.
That's where you come in…I need something witty, creative and yet somehow sexy too to convince viewers of the episode that Bobby and I will write that we're both serious writers and we can tell good quality Doctor Who stories which are worth watching/listening/reading/playing (Delete as required) and being paid handsomely for.
So please, put your suggestions down below, and remember, it is for a children TV science fiction show so no Hugh Jarse or Seymour Cox
This is serious business and so I ask you to approach it as such
Thanks in advance!

Well Juan I am going to stick with my original suggestion of Frank Somerville but maybe with an added middle initial. Oh and I’ll change Frank to Francis.
Just imagine it in these opening credits just before the eppy starts…’Terror of the Whirlygirg’ by Russell T Davies. Based on an original idea by Bobby Tomlinson and Francis C Somerville.

The Scribe is pretty cool Bobby, yeah
But it would have to be modernised for the kiddies to get into so maybe Dah Skrybe or De Scripto to give it that international panache that the Beeb and Disney love so much these days.
That means I could be any gender and sexuality and any colour too
Also dyslexic!

Yes you could be anybody that you want to be Juan I mean look at Dan!! Just a handful of years ago he was as dull and straight and safe as they come…now he’s a woman and performs Burlesque and good for him!!
Another suggestion I have is something that’s double barrelled…something like John Pattison-Bryce. Just imagine how cool that would look next to my name against a backdrop of stars or a time vortex or something like that.
