'''Julie Gardner''' has more [[above the line]] credits than any other woman in the history of the [[DWU]] franchise.  She is second only to [[Russell T Davies]] for most hours of DWU entertainment [[executive producer|produced]], and only falls behind him because she wasn't involved in the final two series of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''.  She was RTD's most constant collaborator, and helped him launch not only ''Doctor Who'' in [[2005]], but also ''[[Torchwood (TV series)|Torchwood]]'' and ''SJA''.

She was the Head of Drama at BBC Wales until March 2009 when it was announced she was to join the staff of [[Los Angeles]]-based [[BBC Worldwide|BBC Worldwide America]] as executive producer in charge of scripted projects.
She was the executive producer of ''Doctor Who'' as a consequence of being [[Head of Drama at BBC Wales]], a title which held from before the start of production of ''Doctor Who'' until March 2009, when it was announced she was to join the staff of [[Los Angeles]]-based [[BBC Worldwide|BBC Worldwide America]] as executive producer in charge of scripted projects.


Although always credited as [[executive producer]], she did at least once serve as the ''de facto'' [[producer]]. On ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'', she was actually in charge of day-to-day production issues when the credited producer [[Tracie Simpson]] was seconded by [[Steven Moffat]] to begin work on [[series 5 (Doctor Who)|series 5]]. In fact, Gardner had actually toyed with the notion of stepping down from her executive position to be the producer of all of the [[2009 specials]], but in the end she had to be contented with producing [[David Tennant]]'s finalé. ([[DWMSE 25]])  As she said on the episode's web commentary, "It was the perfect end."
