Moffat would of course want Mathieson back! The ratings were merely due to the midseason lull, and Mummy was a huge success. If Mathieson doesn't come back I would be very surprised. And we do essentially know where The Time War began - Genesis of the Daleks. The Time Lords tried to have the Daleks erased, they clearly found out and retaliate. Hence the Time War begins. But I would love for RTD to come back for a one-parter! I feel if there is to be a midseason two-parter (and there should, for ratings) then Mathieson should write it. As for Peter Harness, I quite loved Kill the Moon. Every now and again Who needs a bit of darkness and I didn't think it was dull to be honest. If one of the Series 8 writers is to be cut, it should be FCB, Forest was abysmal! Other than that, I like your list!
