When first commissioned, the eleventh episode of ''[[Doctor Who]]''{{'}}s [[Series 2 (Doctor Who 2005)|second series]] was provisionally called '''''The 1920s'''''. It was based on a script written by [[Stephen Fry]]. ([[DWM 360]]) | |||
Believing the script to be too expensive for this slot, however, [[Russell T Davies]] decided that it would be held over to [[Series 3 (Doctor Who)|series 3]], and require further rewrites. The script was replaced with ''[[Fear Her (TV story)|Fear Her]]'', a separate commission to Fry's script. Fry's script was never made as Fry could not find the time to make the necessary alterations.
