David Fisher

David Fisher was a very experienced television writer who wrote many scripts for popular series. He is perhaps best known today for his work on Doctor Who (1963), for which he wrote five stories during the Tom Baker years. In later years he collaborated with former Doctor Who (1963) script editor Anthony Read on a number of historical books dealing with subjects including World War Two espionage, the Nazi persecution of the Jews and the Nazi/Soviet pact of the early 1940s. He lived with his second wife in a 16th-century house in Suffolk.
