On the [[BBC Wales]] version of ''Doctor Who'', the DP uses the [[American]] definition of the job. He — for a woman has not yet been a DP on any ''Doctor Who''-related show — is thus in full charge of both the lighting and camera departments. His principal duty is to design the lighting plan for the episode and to manage the technical details of actually filming it. | On the [[BBC Wales]] version of ''Doctor Who'', the DP uses the [[American]] definition of the job.

The DP notionally reports to the [[director]], but relationship between the two is usually consultative and collaborative. | People that report to the DP include, but are not limited to [[gaffer]]s, [[best boy]]s, [[grip]]s, lighting [[rigger]]s and [[camera operator]]s.
