Edward Russell
Neil Edward Russell Neil was the original brand assistant for the BBC Wales stable of Doctor Who universe programmes. He was let go in 2017. He had a minor impact upon the production of Voyage of the Damned by making the initial overtures to Kylie Minogue's confidante, Will Bacon.[1] In 2011, he made a donation of his time to the hospice which had cared for Elisabeth Sladen in her final days by undertaking a charity walk from Upper Boat Studios in Wales to the BBC Television Centre in London.[2]
Russell was featured on What Goes on Tour..., an episode of Doctor Who Confidential which examined the Doctor Who bus tour that introduced the then-new Eleventh Doctor to schoolchildren across the United Kingdom. He also appeared on Who Peter.
Russell's exact title has been represented differently on different programmes. His formal title appears to be "Senior Brand Assistant to the Executive", as is his credit on What Goes on Tour.... However, he was also credited as the simpler "brand assistant" on the 2010 edition of Doctor Who at the Proms.
