“This is honestly about fandom in general - everyone's a fan of something - and it's a tribute to it. The point about LINDA is that they forget the Doctor after a while, and make friends. They're genuinely good mates. That's what good fandom does. It's real passion, and connection, and fun. And that's not said often enough.”
Russell explains: "The idea has been knocking around since Series One. It's one of those concepts that we'd been keeping up our sleeves, waiting its turn. It was always called I Love the Doctor, and had the Doctor's faithful stalker cropping up wherever he went. We always knew that we'd do it in some shape or form - not in the first year, cos it's too odd for that - but then the idea was drafted in out of necessity when the Christmas Special was commissioned. That meant that we had to complete Series Two in roughly the same schedule as Series One, but with a whole extra episode. In other words, one of this years episodes had to be double-banked - shot at the same time as another episode , with two teams shooting simultaeously, and the Doctor and Rose juggled between them."
