The latest Special Edition of Doctor Who Magazine covers a much-loved era of the show, Tom Baker’s first three seasons as the Fourth Doctor.
And every print copy of Gothic Horror includes a new and exclusive compilation CD from BBC Audiobooks!
Doctor Who Magazine editor, Marcus Hearn, says:
The stories in Tom Baker’s first three seasons have a formidable reputation. This is an issue that celebrates the classis Gothic horror era. We’ve got the inside story on the restoration of the new Blu-rays, and we reveal the new Skarasen as it appears in the Special Edition of Terror of the Zygons.
Elsewhere in the magazine, Louise Jameson has brought her unique insight to a new adventure with the Fourth Doctor and Leela. The CD includes an exclusive preview of The Loch Ness Monster, as well as highlights from 14 other Target audiobooks.
The whole package is a real collectors’ edition – and the perfect companion to the new Season 13 box set.

- Behind the scenes on the shoot that brought the Skarasen back to life.
