Life on Mars (TV series)

Life on Mars was a television series.

As a young man witnessed Jo Grant on the London Underground in 2006, he thought she could have "walked off the set of Life on Mars". (PROSE: Jigsaw [+]Loading...["Jigsaw (short story)"])

Natasha Nightingale compared getting displaced through time by the Weeping Angels to Life on Mars. She thought John Simm was great in it, but people only remembered Philip Glenister "because Gene Hunt was so..."; she changed topic before finishing the sentence. (GAME: The Lonely Assassins [+]Loading...["The Lonely Assassins (video game)"])

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

John Simm played Sam Tyler in Life on Mars and the series was co-created by Matthew Graham. Other DWU actors who starred in the series include William Hoyland, Marshall Lancaster and Liz White. Other crew who worked on both series include Chris Chibnall, Richard Clark, Andrew Gunn, Crispin Layfield, Andy Pryor, Elwen Rowlands and Geoffrey Sax.

The reference book, Creatures and Demons, claims that Sam Tyler was named after Rose Tyler. When Matthew asked his daughter, Daisy, to come up with a surname for Sam, she chose Tyler. It was only later - once Sam Tyler was named - that Daisy told her father she'd suggested the name because the Doctor's companion was Rose Tyler.
