An unofficial guide to 50 years of time travel
Since Doctor Who began its incredible run on British television in 1963, the Daily Mirror has always been there to cover the adventures of the Time Lord.
You can see more images Here
From the show’s earliest days, The Doctors: The Archive features stunning unseen images from the Mirror’s archive. For the first time, fans can see the show’s original star William Hartnell having his wig put in place, and see behind the scenes on many of the show’s episodes which have now been lost in time.
The extensive photographic coverage features rare and never-before-seen pictures from not just the show’s early years, but throughout the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, plus exclusive pictures taken during the recording of the revived television series which has become a sensation in the 21st century.
Featuring archive and brand new interviews, this special publication to mark the Time Lord’s birthday is an essential read for all fans of the show.
This 84-page glossy magazine, published under our Mirror Collection series,salutes and commemorates 50 years of Doctor Who on the BBC and will be hugely collectable.

Sam Bentley
November 17th, 2013 - 10:18pmNot to sure on this cover, maybe the Mirror needs a new graphic designer? I’d be happy to offer my services! Aha!
But this book does seem very interesting, and probably a great read.

November 17th, 2013 - 10:18pmNot book, magazine – sorry!
Kenny Smith
November 18th, 2013 - 11:53amTechnically, our guys have been calling it a “bookazine”. So you’re sort of right!
booboo

Kenny Smith
November 16th, 2013 - 7:15pmThanks, BooBoo! I wrote the text and compiled the images, so thank you! What page are you on?

Kenny Smith
November 16th, 2013 - 7:26pmAh! If everyone likes it and sells well, we’ve already talked about potential a second volume. We’ve already sourced more pics that came in after the deadline.

BlackGuardian
November 5th, 2013 - 12:42pmThis looks great – and very reasonable at £4.99 (and only £2 postage to Europe). I’m definitely getting this 🙂
Now come on Radio Times special, where are you???
booboo
November 5th, 2013 - 12:45pmwas wondering about that, Radio times have done some terrific books in the past
Johnny
November 5th, 2013 - 1:06pmI thought it was confirmed that there would be no Radio Times special this year as there were enough other magazines doing special issues.
Dark Lord
November 5th, 2013 - 8:36pmIf that’s true, then it’s a damn shame! I’m very surprised that RT would miss such a classic opportunity to showcase it’s most iconic programme!!
Johnny
November 6th, 2013 - 8:51amThe didn’t do one for the 30th or 40th anniversaries either.
You have to remember too that RT is not produced by the BBC anymore but is owned by an independent publisher, and maybe the new owners aren’t interested in special editions like there have been in the past
BlackGuardian
November 6th, 2013 - 7:26pmThere was a pull-out in the regular edition of RT for the 40th anniversary, but I would be very surprised (and hugely disappointed)if they weren’t planning a special for the 50th. Maybe they’re keeping it under wraps until the 23rd.

November 6th, 2013 - 7:32pmOnly didn’t do 30 and 40 because DW wasn’t on TV.
nichloas r
November 6th, 2013 - 9:38pm“shame cant the radio times reprint the 20 year special like they did with the 10th one back in 2003
Johnny
November 7th, 2013 - 3:20pm@ 100000BC – Just because “Doctor Who” wasn’t on the television didn’t mean there wasn’t a fanbase willing to buy an anniversary magazine. DWM sold constantly when the series owas off the air.
@ BlackGuardian – Prepare to be “surprised (and hugely disappointed)”.

November 3rd, 2013 - 11:40amSo, basically, it’s £5.99, for me anyway. Cool! I’m getting this
DoctorWhoFan101
November 3rd, 2013 - 11:38amIs there a picture for this. Either there isn’t or my laptop is playing up (Again).
booboo
November 3rd, 2013 - 11:40amthere was but it hadn’t been approved so we didn’t show it, i thoght the final version may be up by now
DoctorWhoFan101

100000BC
November 6th, 2013 - 7:33pmWould that be “Rose Piper” who was companion to “Peter Eccleston”?
KORSAIR
November 1st, 2013 - 7:27pmI’ll be getting this, I remember faithfully cutting out every Dr Who piece from the newspapers for my scrap book as a youngin’.
The Monitor
November 1st, 2013 - 5:18pmJust hope it is available in shops, but can see from above that is unlikely…
Johnny
November 4th, 2013 - 8:41amWH Smiths usually carry these type of publications.
Johnny
November 1st, 2013 - 3:21pmBefore anyone asks, it’s £4:99 plus £1 P&P.
Tardis’nt
