'''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 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. | '''Julie Gardner''' has more [[above the line]] credits than any other woman in the history of the [[DWU]] franchise.

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. | 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." | Although always credited as [[executive producer]], she did at least once serve as the ''de facto'' [[producer]].
