Peter Anghelides
Peter Anghelides is a
British author and dramatist best known for his work on various
spin-offs related to the
BBC television series
Doctor Who.
Anghelides' first published work was the short story "Moving On" in the third volume of the
Virgin Decalog collections, which led to further short stories in the fourth collection and then in two of the
BBC Short Trips collections that followed. In January 1998, his first novel
Kursaal was published as part of
BBC Books'
Eighth Doctor Adventures series on books. Anghelides subsequently wrote two more novels for the range,
Frontier Worlds in November 1999, which was named "Best
Eighth Doctor Novel" in the annual
Doctor Who Magazine poll of its readers, and the
The Ancestor Cell in July 2000 (co-written with departing editor
Stephen Cole).
The Ancestor Cell was placed ninth in the Top 10 of
SFX magazine's "Best SF/Fantasy novelisation or TV tie-in novel" category of that year.
Anghelides also wrote several short stories for a variety of
Big Finish Productions'
Short Trips and
Bernice Summerfield collections. This led, in November 2002, to the production of his first
audio adventure for Big Finish, the play
Mirror, Signal, Manoeuvre for the first season of their
Sarah Jane Smith audio series.
