The latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine includes two free gifts — a 32-page mini-magazine, collecting together Russell T Davies’ Production Notes on Doctor Who Series 2, and a double-sided poster.
The mini-magazine goes behind the scenes of David Tennant’s first season as the Tenth Doctor, while the poster features all the artwork for the BBC Audiobook range.
What’s more, inside, Rob Shearman talks about his new novels – Jubilee and The Chimes of Midnight – based on Big Finish stories he wrote for the Sixth and Eighth Doctors (Colin Baker and Paul McGann, respectively) in the early 2000s.
