Three mongrel men in exchange for a party member? I found that one in the Faustian Bargain Bin.

If this is the case, what's to stop just any old fan from "sticking their hand up"? I assume there's some controller somewhere who vets applicants, but what are the base qualifications that(/those) person(s) are looking for? Is it just star-power/industry cred? And if it is, what's to stop someone like Gaiman from gritting his teeth and going, "Yeah, OK, give it to me. I'm only gonna do one series, though."


[Edit] Britified the Gaiman quote.

I wouldn't want Gatiss to take the job anymore. The last Sherlock series was awful.

Wasn't it, though? But I'm pretty sure that was Moffat's fault, as the main issue was Last Vow being utterly terrible.
