Susie Liggat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Susie Liggat is a British television producer. Her career had predominantly been as a first assistant director, in which capacity she worked on popular series such as Teachers, Black Books, and Casanova, until she became a producer in 2006. She produced Invasion of the Bane, the pilot episode of The Sarah Jane Adventures, a spin-off from Doctor Who, on which she had worked as a first assistant director.

During the production of the 2007 series of Doctor Who, Liggat produced one filming block (the two-parter "Human Nature"/"The Family of Blood") as holiday relief for regular producer Phil Collinson. Liggat is also producing five episodes of the 2008 series: "Planet of the Ood", "The Sontaran Strategem", "The Poison Sky", "The Unicorn and the Wasp" and "Turn Left".[1][2]

Excluding executive producers, Liggat is notable for being one of only two women (along with Verity Lambert) to produce an episode of Doctor Who, and (along with John Nathan-Turner) one of only two people to produce an episode for more than one programme set in the Doctor Who universe.

Liggat is currently producing the 2008 Christmas Special.
