Gary Russell is the inaugural recipient of The Terrance Dicks Award For Writers.
The ceremony took place at the Doctor Who Appreciation Society’s convention The Capitol Five in front of a packed house at the Crowne Plaza, London-Gatwick. Gary received the award, a statue of The Master crafted by Gary Glover of Mooncrest Models, from Terrance’s wife Elsa.
Gary said; “To be the recipient of this inaugural award is an honour, a pleasure and a scary responsibility I could never have expected. Terrance was an inspiration, a mentor and above all, a good friend. Thank you to the DWAS and Elsa and the boys for this amazing award.”
Russell is the author of numerous Doctor Who novels, edited the official magazine, wrote comic strips for IDW and was script editor on Doctor Who, The Sarah Jane Adventures and Torchwood on TV. He was one of the founders of Big Finish, and currently is overseeing the animation of The Abominable Snowmen.
