C. E. Webber (9 April 1909- June 1969) or Cecil Edwin Webber, is sometimes credited (incorrectly) as the writer of the Doctor Who story An Unearthly Child. However, Webber was instrumental in shaping the core structures of the program at an early stage, including such elements as the composition of the TARDIS crew and suggesting basic ideas for these characters. None of his scripts were used in the eventual program, though he is nonetheless referred to as a co-creator of Doctor Who.
