Out Now: Doctor Who Magazine #565

The latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine delivers a smorgasbord of Classic Doctor Who goodness, with Season 24 taking centre stage (probably for the first time since 1987).

DWM #565 features the story behind the discovery of Season 24’s previously unseen footage, which is included in the upcoming Doctor Who: The Collection Season 24 set.

Gorgeous cover, too, huh?
