Richard Curtis (born 8th November, 1956) is an English writer best known for his work on The Vicar of Dibley and Spitting Image, and his collaborations with Rowan Atkinson on Blackadder and Mr. Bean.
His first work in the Doctor Who franchise was as the executive producer of the official BBC parody, The Curse of Fatal Death. Steven Moffat once credited Curtis with inviting him to write the spoof, Moffat's first televised work for Doctor Who, and suggested that he was "returning the favour" by commissioning Curtis to write Vincent and the Doctor.
