Congratulations to Russell T Davies...
Dec. 1st, 2008 07:07 amRussell T Davies got an OBE, which shows good judgement on someone's part. It makes me think Canadians are terrible stuffed shirts, because as far as I know, in Canada we only hand out honours for dry, highbrow lit that isn't much fun to read. I hope I'm wrong.
It's no secret that I think Russell T Davies is a genius - I thought his work was impressive with Queer as Folk and his Doctor Who was conceptually brilliant, both in what he made of the Doctor with Christopher Eccleston, but in what he did with the source material.
He's a flawed genius, but most geniuses are.
But "Writers are the lifeblood of a lot of stuff" must be his most inelegant line ever.
