  • Ian Atkins est un écrivain pour Big Finish Productions, qui a écrit des nouvelles écrites et audio. Depuis le décès de Paul Spragg en mai 2014, il est également devenu assistant de production pour la compagnie.
  • Ian Atkins (born in Sheldon, West Midlands on 16 January 1957) was manager of Bristol Rovers between April 2004 and September 2005. He was selected for the job earlier in 2004, but for contractual reasons he was forced to spent some time on 'gardening leave' before taking over the team in April. Prior to him taking control Russell Osman and Kevan Broadhurst had covered as joint caretaker managers. During his only full season as Bristol Rovers manager, 2004-05, the team broke the club record for the most league draws in a single season with twenty-one.
  • He was, however, beholden to his — and virtually everyone else's — boss, Donald Baverstock. He effectively acted as the buffer between Sydney Newman — and all those under him in the drama department — and Baverstock, who was the overall chief of programmes. Baverstock was less inclined to believe it necessary for Doctor Who to get adequate studio space and equipment. Atkins sometimes had to relay bad news to Newman and Lambert's team, but was nevertheless regularly taking up the production team's case with Baverstock.

  • He was, however, beholden to his — and virtually everyone else's — boss, Donald Baverstock. He effectively acted as the buffer between Sydney Newman — and all those under him in the drama department — and Baverstock, who was the overall chief of programmes. Baverstock was less inclined to believe it necessary for Doctor Who to get adequate studio space and equipment. Atkins sometimes had to relay bad news to Newman and Lambert's team, but was nevertheless regularly taking up the production team's case with Baverstock. On 1 November 1963, he intervened directly in an important question of design. On that date he held a conference with Raymond Cusick, his direct superior in the design department, the person who was in charge of seeing that sets got moved in a timely fashion. Atkins gave them all a direct order to do something about the design of the TARDIS interior. As designed by the then-departed Peter Brachacki, it was simply too heavy and too complicated to erect. It was jeopardising the efficiency of the whole scenery department, who were spending entirely too much time on Doctor Who at the expense of other programmes. By 22 November, Cusick had redesigned and simplified the TARDIS interior. Chief amongst the things he omitted was the hexagonal top light that hung above the TARDIS console. Cusick's redesign was completed after the recording of "The Dead Planet", meaning that Brachacki's original design should have appeared in the second serial as well as the first. However, thanks to recording errors, "Planet" needed to be re-recorded. Therefore the new "Cusick interior" made its debut in The Mutants — the serial now known as The Daleks.
