Paul Kirkley was born in Leeds some hours before The Daemons episode three, but they kept you in hospital for ages in those days, so he missed it. Currently deputy editor of Cambridge's daily newspaper, Paul writes regularly for SFX, and has frequently contributed to websites such as Behind the Sofa and Tachyon TV. In 2011, he beat off competition from other journalists to win the coveted-ish title of Newspaper Columnist of the Year (East of England), a trick he repeated in 2013.
