magazine-dwm425BE IN SEVENTH HEAVEN – WITH DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE 425!

In his most candid interview to date, lavishly illustrated with never-before-seen photos, SYLVESTER McCOY talks at length to DWM about his long career, on being the Seventh Doctor – and what he thinks about Doctor Who today…

“I’m delighted that they’ve done such a good job in bringing it back. I’m so proud to have that connection with this very successful programme. It wasn’t allowed to be successful when I was doing it.

At the time, I didn’t know why. It was only afterwards that I realised I wasn’t given a fair crack of the whip. I wish I had been…”

Also this issue:

A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIMEY-WIMEY!
Time travel – what are the rules? And can those rules be broken? In an in-depth feature, DWM examines the knotty problems of paradoxes and time loops, and explores the incredible phenomenon of timey-wimeyness throughout the history of Doctor Who!

A NIGHT AT THE PROMS!
It’s the music event of the year! DWM dons its dinner jacket and journeys to the Royal Albert Hall to talk exclusively to the people responsible for the Doctor Who Prom, including composer MURRAY GOLD, conductor BEN FOSTER and executive producer STEVEN MOFFAT. Packed with behind-the-scenes photos from the Prom, this is the definitive account of the making of the show!

THE GOLDEN AGE OF TELEVISION!
The Doctor and Amy take a trip to Tokyo and discover that too much TV can be really, really bad for kids, in the first episode of a brand new comic strip adventure by Jonathan Morris and Martin Geraghty – THE GOLDEN ONES!

ART TREASURES OF HISTORY!
What have a Roman mosaic, a painting by Toulouse Lautrec and a long, floppy scarf got in common? They all feature in the brand new audio series starring TOM BAKER as the Fourth Doctor, Demon Quest! DWM catches up with the legendary Tom, co-stars RICHARD FRANKLIN and SUSAN JAMESON, writer PAUL MAGRS and many more in an exclusive report from the recording of the adventures!

THE WORLD’S GREATEST PLAYWRIGHT!
William Shakespeare – the most talented dramatist in history or a letch with bad breath? Find out the truth (according to Doctor Who!) behind the man and his works, as The Fact of Fiction extracts every nuance of meaning from the literary triumph that is the 2007 Tenth Doctor adventure, THE SHAKESPEARE CODE!

THE WRITER’S TALE
Doctor Who’s head writer, STEVEN MOFFAT, reveals all about being shy, being recognised, and the Eleventh Doctor’s most recent adventure – defusing a bomb at the Proms! – in Production Notes.

THE ANGEL OF THE NORTH!

DWM catches up with Hex, the hunky nurse who accompanies the Seventh Doctor and Ace on their audio adventures, aka actor PHILIP OLIVIER, who reveals his experiences of attending conventions, being recognised in the street and what he really thinks about Doctor Who fans…

Plus! All the latest official news, Previews, Reviews, Competitions and much, much more!

Treat yourself an unparalleled dose of culture with DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE 425 – out Thursday 19 August from all good newsagents and supermarkets!

    -wrong. Youre thinking of the Fifth Doctor, the Seventh wears a Sun hat. Dear Sylvester actually wore it to the auditiion for the role, and believes it probably helped getthe part.

    The Seventh, my favourite Doctor when it comes to attire. And Although people at the time werent fussed on Dr Who any more, and the show was being eclipsed by soap operas, and there was hardly even any media or advertisements about it at the time so very little awareness(as i discovered in this magazine) I found the episodes to be fabulous, and really special.

    The 7th Doctor was brilliant. He was dark and mysterious and his stories were weird and wonderful

    Return of Sylvester! Well Done! So, go and bring back the Seventh Doctor. Brilliant! You thought you had seen the last of Sylvester Mccoy (Seventh Doctor) well think againg! He has actually made the cover page of what should rightfully have been given to Matt Smith (Eleventh Doctor!) Great Job DWM! I’m sure Sylvestor would be proud, except it says UNLUCKY! Well, who cares? Sounds Mysterious! I love it! Definatly going to buy it and probobly the best cover in a while! Congradulations DWM, you have definatly got my vote! Bravo DWM! Bravo!

    ghost light got good reviews didnt it?


  17. Posted by: The Next Doctor Not Really August 14th, 2010 Reply

    it’s a shame that they didn’t put more effort into the writing

    Season 25 & 26 has some of the best stories ever, so under rated, Survival, The Curse of Fenric, Ghost Light and The Greatest Show in the Galaxy are let down by production for me, if done today they’d make some of the other stories look like rubbish.

    I like the seventh doctors theme tune because its computer animated!

    I loved Sylvesters Doctor, it’s a shame that they didn’t put more effort into the writing I shudder everytime I think of Delta and the bannermen…….it was woefull

    Sylvester McCoy was a great Doctor.. The first to really show another darker side of The Doctor. He’s definitely MY Doctor!


  21. Posted by: The Next Doctor Not Really August 13th, 2010 Reply

    Great Cover! In my opinion McCoy was the best Doctor and he wasn’t even my second Doctor!

    why does every1 say they are rubbish?

    I think is more some of the stories they had to work with, not them particularly

    Tom returns
    Sylvester is unlucky
    Matt has things in the future


  26. Posted by: Davros August 13th, 2010 Reply

    Poor Sylvester, even though I don’t like him and his Doctor. Wasn’t he forced to leave because loads of people thought he was bad?
