Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I te marama o Mei 2008, i kii te BBC ko Moffat te mea ka whai ake i a Davies hei kaituhi matua me te kaiwhakanao whakahaere mo te "Doctor Who" mo te raupapa tuarima o te whakaaturanga, ka tukuna i te tau 2010, ahakoa kua timata a Davies i nga korerorero me Moffat mo tenei i te Hōngongoi 2007. I whakaaro ia ki te whakaoti i te mahi i runga i te "Tintin" trilogy i mua i te tīmata anō i te mahi i runga i "Doctor Who", engari whakaroa meinga e te takawaenga
Ko te 2007-2008 Writers Guild of America i kii ko ia anake te tuku i tetahi waahanga o te tuhinga mo te kiriata tuatahi. I kii a Moffat ki te "The Guardian" i te tau 2012 he "pai" a Spielberg mo tana whakatau ki te haere atu i tana kirimana "Tintin" e toru nga kiriata ki te hoki ki "Doctor Who". Ko te tuhinga mo te kiriata tuatahi o te toru, "The Adventures of Tintin" (i tukuna i te 2011), i whakaotihia e Edgar Wright me Joe Cornish, me tetahi waahanga o te tuhinga a Moffat i whakamahia i roto i te kiriata.
