Steven Moffat, the brilliant mind behind the best episodes of the new series, will be taking over for Russel T. Davies.I cannot tell you how happy this makes me. It'll be interesting to see how the show is handled by a lead writer who does not have the same views of romance and sentimentality as a fourteen year old girl

That is certainly good news.

With extra luck, he can convince them to tape in HD for season 5 :)

That is truly good news.

I didn't realize he did "The Girl in the Fireplace" but being that that episode was full of awesome, I guess it makes sense.

I'm pretty sure this post needs the 'firetruck' 'amusement 12' and 'toystore' tags :-)

OMG excited! He also wrote Coupling, which always made me laugh so hard I nearly hurt myself.
