Phil Collinson (born 26 August 1970[1]) was the main producer of Doctor Who from Rose to Journey's End, save for a handful of episodes produced by Susie Liggat.

Towards the end of his first run on Doctor Who, he was occasionally credited as executive producer, typically on those episodes produced by Liggat. On a more permanent basis, he was credited as executive producer upon his return to the series beginning with the 2023 special The Star Beast.

He was also "series producer", receiving executive producer credit, of the initial run of The Sarah Jane Adventures.

Career

Collinson initially entered the TV industry as an actor, but feeling uncomfortable with screen-acting as opposed to stage performance, he opted to instead take up production roles.[2] Immediately prior to Doctor Who, he worked on the BBC Scotland paranormal drama Sea of Souls and was responsible for bringing several other crew members over from this production to work on Doctor Who.

In 2008 he left BBC Wales to become Head of Drama at BBC Manchester, but then swiftly moved on to helm Coronation Street.

Personal life

Collinson grew up in the north of England. He is also gay.[2]
