Paul Joyce

Paul Joyce (born 27 December 1940) directed the Doctor Who story Warriors' Gate. Complications with the production of the story led him to undertake a joint effort to rewrite its script. He later argued with then-producer John Nathan-Turner and lighting director John Dixon over differing visions about how to capture the story. Joyce was briefly fired from his position after the dispute, leaving then-production assistant Graeme Harper to oversee the latter half of the script. Joyce was quickly re-hired after the issues with productions were worked out.
