Whereas Steven Moffat writes like Bach - structurally flawless, economical, elegant, never a word (note) wasted, far less showy but with a tendency to get right under one's skin.
This is very interesting: I thought 'Blink' was technically flawless, not a foot wrong, but it lacked the emotional core of 'The Girl in the Fireplace'.
We discussed RTD in depth on the way to the supermarket and concluded that if we're talking classical composers, it has to be Mozart. Some guff, frequent flashes of brilliance, occasional genius. However, he's not really a classical composer at all. He's more like ABBA.
