I just watched this older interview with Steven Moffat in which he talks about his work. Great insights about his work on Dr Who and Sherlock and he says some beautiful things about writing:

Likewise.
I love what he says about writer's block. I had never considered it as my inner editor, but what he says about it does make sense.
*goes back to writing. No, scratch that. trying to write*

Here's a recent interview of Moffat by his son Lewis made by Sue V in their home.  Really fun.

Nice to see all those awards on the shelves behind them.  Lewis is so beautiful and funny!

Aw, they seem to have a lovely relationship!  I like the way Louis tries to answer the questions for him, and they bicker.  So funny that Steven googled to find out whether his cat loved him, and I love his way of thinking about the time machine question and the last meal question.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Steven Moffat´s headcanon - very bizzare!

lol That's quite funny.  I'm sure there's even more head canons you could create since BBC reuses sets.  I believe the room where The Diogenes Club was also used in a Doctor Who episode.


Clueing for looks.
