Steven Moffat is one of the UK's most eminent television writers.

His two-part story THE EMPTY CHILD and THE DOCTOR DANCES for Series 1 of the BBC TV's revival of DR WHO (starring Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper) won him much acclaim and the award for Television Moment of the Year.

As creator/writer of the cult BBC2 sitcom COUPLING, Steven has written 28 episodes over 4 series, winning the Silver Rose of Montreux 2001 and the award for Best TV Comedy at the British Comedy Awards December 2003. Coupling is produced by Sue Vertue for Hartswood Films. Two pilots and several episodes of a US version were made by Reveille/Universal for NBC, though arguably NBC would have been better off had they screened the UK series which has had a cult following in the US via BBC America.

Steven's first television work was as writer of all 43 episodes over 5 series of PRESS GANG, about a group of wayward high school students who are given a local newspaper to run and which won BAFTA and Royal Television Society Awards for Best Children's Programme (and was nominated for two Writers Guild of Great Britain awards, 1 Prix Jeunesse and another BAFTA).

He then wrote two situation comedies for the BBC, JOKING APART (2 series), which Bob Spiers directed and which won the Bronze Rose of Montreux 1995 and CHALK (2 series), which caused uproar in the teaching profession.
His other television work includes PRIVATES, the pilot for a one-hour comedy drama, produced by Sandra Hastie of Richmond Films and Television for the ITV Network, directed by Bob Spiers; NORMAN AT THE OFFICE, a one-off half-hour comedy starring Robert Lindsay; OVERKILL & DYING LIVE, half-hour television plays for Dawn French and EXAM CONDITIONS, a half-hour silent film for the EBU Commission/Central Television, which won the Prix Jeunesse and Plovdiv Awards and was nominated for a RTS award.

Steven's current projects include more DR WHO for Series 2, (with David Tennant as the Doctor), for imminent transmission on BBC One. Steven's updated version of JEKYLL starring James Nesbitt goes into production in the autumn as a 6 x one hour series, produced by Elaine Cameron and Jeffrey Taylor for Hartswood Films and BBC One. After that, Steven will be concentrating on a romantic comedy which he is developing as a series for Hartswood/BBC One with producer Sue Vertue, and maybe something more for the Doctor.
