Having come to Rob's work through short stories I was happily oblivious to the fact that he'd written one of my favourite Dr Who episodes, worked extensively in theatre and won numerous awards in every field he's turned his attention to. If you want to know more about all of that you can read about it on his website or on Wikipedia.
Un:Bound met with Rob while he was extremely jet lagged, at Fantasy Con 2010 and we video'd the interview. It was the first one we've recorded this way so somewhat experimental. The video interview has been reduced to under ten minutes, focussing mainly on Rob's books.
If you want to know more (we talked about his other work and making 'Dalek', the writers retreat he'd just returned from, how creepy Kangeroos are, why he loves Disneyland and doesn't think kids should be allowed in and his love/hate relationship with his cat), then the audio is up and totally unedited so you can download and enjoy that in full.

Great introduction to Mr. Shearman's rather wacky sense of humor. His imagination isn't bad either.
Neither is yours by the way. And you are a first class interviewer, without peer and without reproach. Thanks for sharing your love of people. Adele you are one of the goddesses of the microphone. :-)
Hey Jack *blushes furiously* you are a shameless flatterer... and I adore you for it, please don't stop. ;p
Very much looking forward to this weeks ravenous visit. :)
And yes, Rob is hilarious.
Cool!
