Joe Ahearne

Joe Ahearne (born 23 November 1963) directed five episodes of Doctor Who, all from Series 1, making him the most prolific director of that series (and, by extension, of Christopher Eccleston's tenure as the Ninth Doctor).

He was born on the day that the first episode of Doctor Who (An Unearthly Child) was first broadcast.

His first production, entitled Latin in a Dark Room, won the Edinburgh awards.
