Doctor Who was in part inspired by the BBC's earlier science-fiction television series The Quatermass Experiment (1953). In 1988 the show paid homage by referring to the character of Bernard Quatermass in the 1988 episode "Remembrance of the Daleks". It is also implied that this episode takes place the day "Doctor Who" made its debut on TV. Quatermass creator Nigel Kneale turned down offers to write for Doctor Who, revealing in subsequent interviews that he disliked the concept of the series and regarded it as unsuitable for children to watch. Nevertheless, several Doctor Who stories were influenced by Kneale's stories.
