Extracts from the autobiography of Double Deckers script editor, Glyn Jones

Posted on by

I'm on the road this weekend, so no time to finalise my write-up of Happy Haunting, I'm afraid. Instead, please enjoy these extracts from No Official Umbrella, the 700-page autobiography of Glyn Jones, who was the script editor of Here Come The Double Deckers and also wrote or co-wrote many of the episodes.


(Five pages of anecdotes about auditions before we get back to Double Deckers🙂




And that’s it, I’m afraid, apart from one or two passing references later on.

There is also a little about Doctor Who – along with Mark Gatiss and Victor Pemberton, Jones is one of the few people to have both written a Who story (The Space Museum) and appeared in one (The Sontaran Experiment) – but I’ll save that for when I write the book up properly.

One thought on “Extracts from the autobiography of Double Deckers script editor, Glyn Jones”

  1. In all my FCO years I have never seen such a rude piece of correspondence. I have seen threats, stone walling, ‘you must be mis-viewing the situation ‘, ‘We would be unable to consider such an invitation’ and they have all been much better written and translated into second and even third languages.

    What a wanker.
