Andrew Smith wrote the Doctor Who television story Full Circle and its novelisation. At the time of initial broadcast, he was the youngest writer to contribute to the TV series.

Smith submitted his work to more than one Doctor Who script editor. They replied with "positive criticism". Finally he sent The Planet that Slept, which became Full Circle.

Shortly afterwards, he became a police officer, spending a long time in that career.

Smith was approached by Big Finish and displayed interest in writing for them. Because he had started the trilogy with Full Circle, they asked him to write a Companion Chronicles story set in E-Space. The Invasion of E-Space was released in October 2010.

Smith remains a great fan of Doctor Who, and still attends "Big Finish Day", a UK convention dedicated to the Doctor Who audio CD dramas he has written for.

He was interviewed on the documentaries The Hitch-Hikers' Guide to Douglas Adams, All Aboard the Starliner and K9 in E-Space and The Writer's Room: Season 18, as well as contributing to the audio commentary for Full Circle.
