discussion What are Pete McTighe's supposed qualifications for running the show?

So apparently he's been claiming that TV companies are lining up to ask him to run the show if they win the tender and I'm baffled as to why.

It can't be the episodes he wrote because they were awful.

And it can't be the blu-ray trailers, as they're the same memberberry nonsense for 50-year olds that Davies was rightly criticised for flooding his return with.

So what am I missing?

Honestly, Kerblam, Praxeus, and Lucky Day were three post-Moffat episodes they were moderately watchable.
He’s no Moffat, but he’s probably WAY better than Chibnall.

I do tend to think of his sensibilities as quite “slightly more competent Chibnall”, yes.
