Donald Tosh is a former BBC screenwriter who contributed to ''Doctor Who'' in 1965.〔(Story Editor Donald Tosh )〕 Before working on ''Doctor Who'' Tosh was briefly script editor on the series ''Compact'', and had helped to develop the show that eventually became ''Coronation Street''.〔(Donald Tosh on Coronation Street and Doctor Who )〕 Tosh was the story editor for the ''Doctor Who'' stories between ''The Time Meddler'' and ''The Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve'', working with producers Verity Lambert and John Wiles. On Tosh's final story, ''The Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve'' by John Lucarotti, Tosh performed a substantial rewrite of the scripts, both to align them with historical accuracy and also to accommodate William Hartnell's dual role as both the Doctor and the Abbot of Amboise.〔http://www.scotlandnow.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/doctor-who-story-editor-donald-4282399〕 On the final episode the story editor's credit was given over to his successor Gerry Davis and Tosh was co-credited.〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/episodeguide/massacre/detail.shtml〕 He also performed an extensive re-write of ''The Celestial Toymaker'' by Brian Hayles. Most of this work, however, was in turn rewritten by Davis. Tosh claimed that the trilogic game was the sole retention from his version of the script.〔'Script editing Who: interview with Donald Tosh', ''Doctor Who Magazine''. No. 191〕 He is the last surviving script editor and writer from the William Hartnell era. After leaving television Tosh worked for a time for English Heritage. He was Head Custodian of Sherborne Old Castle, Dorset and St Mawes in Cornwall.〔http://www.scotlandnow.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/doctor-who-story-editor-donald-4282399〕 He now resides in Essex. In 2013 he appeared as a background character in ''An Adventure in Space and Time'', a drama about the making of the William Hartnell era Doctor Who programme, made to commemorate the show's 50th anniversary. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Donald Tosh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
