The Daleks are back and Doctor Who's boss Steven Moffat is
spilling the beans in DWM #447.
"We’re going to have the most Daleks we’ve had on screen ever –
but they will be from every era, quite deliberately. We’re
calling them in from everywhere! All of them! Even the Special
Weapons Dalek. They'll all be there…" STEVEN MOFFAT talks in
depth about his version of Doctor Who in an exclusive,
revealing, in-depth, eight-page interview…
ALSO THIS ISSUE:
CONQUER AND DESTROY!
The Daleks are the most feared race of creatures in the entire
universe and will stop at nothing to achieve their goal of total
intergalactic domination. And they've concocted more than a few
audacious schemes to achieve this aim – not all of which, it has
to be said, have been entirely successful. JONATHAN MORRIS
unearths the Daleks' own assessment of their successes and
failures.
I AM NOT THE MOFF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!
Doctor Who's commander-in-chief, Steven Moffat, writes
exclusively for DWM in PRODUCTION NOTES! Find out what the Moff
things of his nickname, how he's getting along (or not) with the
script for the Christmas Special and what he had for lunch in
New York!
FAREWELL TO PHILIP
PHILIP MADOC, who played four notable roles in Doctor Who in the
60s and 70s – including the War Lord in The War Games and Doctor
Mehendri Solon in The Brain of Morbius – passed away in March of
this year, at the age of 77. Marcus Hearn takes a look back at
the actor's distinguished career and at his contribution to
Doctor Who.
END OF AN ERA
COUNTDOWN TO 50 continues its season-by-season analysis of
Doctor Who, and the mood is sombre as we reach 1980/81 with
Series 18 and bid farewell to Romana, K9 and, of course, Tom
Baker's Fourth Doctor as he takes his fateful fall from the
Pharos Project radio telescope.
LOST IN TRANSLATION
Shopping can be dangerous to your health as Amy and Rory have
found out when the Monos menace strikes London. Meanwhile, as
the capital's inhabitants succumb to Monos mania, the Doctor and
his new friend Bill discover the source of the trouble. Monos!
Monos! Monos! It's the second instalment of STICKS & STONES,
written by SCOTT GRAY with art by MARTIN GERAGHTY.
CHEMICAL REACTION!
The Third Doctor, Jo Grant and UNIT become involved in a green
movement – in more ways than one – in a Welsh mining village.
Giant maggots, toxic chemical waste, an insane super computer, a
rather tasty fungus, and angry Welshmen – 1973's THE GREEN DEATH
takes its turn under the microscope in THE FACT OF FICTION.
ALL BY MYSELF?
JOHNNY CANDON and TOBY HADOKE cross swords once again in their
latest BATTLE OF WITS! This issue, the hot topic for debate has
been inspired by the imminent departure of companions Amy and
Rory: should the Doctor travel with a regular companion or is he
better off alone?
A SILVER SIDE-STEP
THE TIME TEAM has been upgraded to four pages this month as
Chris, Emma, Will and Michael sit down to watch the Tenth
Doctor, Rose and Mickey's battle with the Cybermen on a parallel
Earth in the two-part story RISE OF THE CYBERMEN/THE AGE OF
STEEL.
OUT OF STOCK
A History of Doctor Who in 100 Objects reaches number 18 and
finds The Watcher mourning the last use of film for a live
action sequence in Doctor Who in The Serving Hatch of Rassilon.
Plus the latest Top Ten Pop Acts, the challenge of The Six Faces
