For all those who said that working in SF never gets you anywhere , Doctor Who producer Russell T. Davies has three letters for you : OBE . Not that that ’s some acronym for an obscure vilification , however . Instead , it stand up for Officer of the British Empire , one of the highest honour usable to non - military personnel office from none other than Her Majesty , Queen Elizabeth II , and something that Davies was award this preceding weekend .
Outgoing Who producer and showrunner Davies was given the OBE for “ services to drama , ” showing that someone in the palace possibly takes the show more earnestly than they should . Sir Humphrey Davy was bemused , but grateful , for the honor :
I ’m charmed to accept , and I hope it does the whole industry a bit of good , for the writing of television drama to be recognize .
Of course , Davies ’ gong does n’t mean that Elizabeth watch David Tennant every Saturday ; the list of those present the honor is unremarkably train by the UK Government , which can only intend one thing : Prime Minister Gordon Brown really , really like the mind of a Tony Blair analog being an malevolent timelord last year .
