Writer with Minnesota connections writing for Doctor Who

Ok, obvious he grew up in the UK, and he's pretty much everywhere at this point in his career, but we still will claim him as a local to the Twin Cities area.

And as someone who has been a fan since Sandman originally came out two decades (eeeek!) ago, I'm very excited to see that it is extremely likely that in 2011, we will have a Doctor Who story by Neil Gaiman.

One of the most exciting things about Doctor Who at the moment isn't just that it is getting guest star actors like Timothy Dalton or Bill Nighy, but guest star writers like Richard Curtis, Simon Nye, and now Neil Gaiman. That is something that I really like that is in the show's DNA, that the writer is one of the key 'stars' of the show.
