Russell T Davies was a monthly column in Doctor Who Magazine, written by Russell T Davies. A successor to the Production Notes and Letter from the Showrunner columns written by Davies and his successors and predecessors, it was launched in early 2024 after Jason Quinn took over as editor.

As in its predecessor columns, Davies hyped and revealed production information from Doctor Who. The column had simpler formatting than Letter from the Showrunner.
