Ernest Vincze, BSC — usually credited as Ernie Vincze, BSC — has been the credited director of photography on more Doctor Who stories than any other person. This distinction applies even when counting "studio lighters", the closest thing to a cinematographer in the 1963 version of the programme. He was the first (and, as of Matt Smith's first series) only person who was a member of the British Society of Cinematographers at the time of their work on Doctor Who.[1]
Vincze was the exclusive director of photography for the Christopher Eccleston series, and then began to alternate production blocks with Rory Taylor, following David Tennant's hiring. He fully "bookended" the Russell T Davies era, by lighting both Rose and The End of Time.
Vincze was named the "Best Director of Photography" by the members of the Welsh chapter of the British Academy for Television Arts for his work on Voyage of the Damned. Consequently, he is the highest-decorated cinematographer or lighting director in the history of Doctor Who.
