Dr Who Adventures Superfan Competition
Doctor Who Adventures Launches Doctor Who Superfan Competition
UK’s biggest Doctor Who Superfan will win a Cyberman visit to their school and a once-in-a-lifetime experience to celebrate Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary!
Doctor Who Adventures magazine, the biggest-selling UK pre-teen magazine for boys, is on the hunt for the nation’s biggest young Doctor Who fan with the prize of a Cyberman visiting their school and a VIP family ticket to the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Celebration at the ExCel Centre in London. Open to children aged between 5-13 until 2 October 2013, fans need to send up to 250 words explaining why they should win the competition and a photo demonstrating why they’re the ultimate Who fan.
To enter, children must fill in the entry form in the magazine, out now until 10 September. The magazine is encouraging fans to send in their most creative ideas and brilliant collections for a chance to win. The lucky winner will be able to upgrade their school with a terrifying visit from one the show’s top monsters, and they and their family will enjoy VIP access to all areas, travel and accommodation at the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Celebration. Four runners-up will receive a goodie bag filled with official Doctor Who products.
Editor of Doctor Who Adventures magazine, Natalie Barnes said “We have such imaginative and dedicated readers, so this competition is a fantastic way of giving them the opportunity to show the world what Doctor Who means to them. I can’t wait to see how they celebrate their favourite show through photos of them dressed as the Doctor or monster, pictures of their incredible bedrooms, fantastic collections and more! We’re really excited to offer such a fantastic prize.”

September 9th, 2013 - 11:03pmHello! I’m Ayan i’m 13 year old girl and i’m a really big fan of Doctor Who. Both Classic and New. I live in North Carolina, USA. Doctor Who makes me really happy and it would literally be an honor just to be part of this competition. After 50 years of this brilliant running show being part of this would be the dream of a lifetime. Thank You.

September 3rd, 2013 - 5:23pmHmm… I’m not sure you can find the biggest fan. Especially not by looking at how much merchandise they have, or how many of the Doctor Who cast they’ve met, and certainly not picking out of such a small age range. I don’t think there is a biggest fan. As Mr. Capaldi says, “Doctor Who belongs to all of us”.

September 1st, 2013 - 9:53amAh man… That would have been awesome if it were available in the US. Don’t forget, there are fans over here too. My 12 year girl loves the show so much she dressed as the Weeping Angel from her fav ep “Don’t Blink” for Halloween last year. Looked like she came right out of the tv! Took some really cool pics.

August 31st, 2013 - 3:41pmIm really devastated at the moment! Was kinda hoping id get at least the opportunity to enter it, but because Im Australian and lack the money to build some ellaborate costume or even buy merchandise. Arghh, my hearts are breakin’ BBC :/

August 31st, 2013 - 2:22pmwell I think that’s soooo unfair I live in Australia, and just because doctor who was made in the uk doesn’t mean that there are no SUPERFANS elsewhere I have been watching since I was 2 and I always dreamt of seeing the doctor or a cyberman but this just crushes my dreams 🙁 😥

Alex
August 30th, 2013 - 5:46pmLets get this straight! It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been watching it or how much merchandise you’ve collected! All it matters is that you love Doctor Who!
Think about it, we are the people who helped Doctor Who become what it is today, doesn’t that make all of us the biggest fans?

Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 6:00pmSo basically what you are saying is this competition is pointless because we are all biggest fans?
Anonymous
August 30th, 2013 - 6:04pmMakes sense :p
LG
August 30th, 2013 - 5:37pmI’m 13, but I wouldn’t want a Cyberman coming into School, everyone would take the mick!
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 5:40pmIf I was 9 I wouldn’t really want a cyberman coming to my school
The1stDoctor903
August 30th, 2013 - 4:59pmUp to 13 years old!? God dammit!
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 5:02pmIf I was 13 I would not let them come into my high school, it would be so embarrassing
UnitedGamers2013
August 30th, 2013 - 5:47pmI was thinking that too, but it would be amazing if I was like 5
BigBang2
August 30th, 2013 - 4:55pm“the biggest-selling UK pre-teen magazine for boys”
Doctor Who Adventures is a boy’s magazine?
isn’t it for all younger fans?
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 5:02pmI thought that too
The Whofan101
August 30th, 2013 - 5:06pmAnd I wouldn’t say the biggest either, with quite a big sales drop
Lonnie
August 30th, 2013 - 8:02pmUm, 16 year old girl who loves Doctor Who and appears to be the only person on here who does want a Cyberman to come to school and yet i’m too old to enter and apparantly its a boys magazine anyway, which i find a bit sexist since i know loads of girls who love Doctor Who -_-
MasterKasterborous
August 31st, 2013 - 8:45amJust to be clear about what this means. Magazines fall into different categories and this simply means it is bought by mostly boys in that category; anyone can buy it but it is that age range that will be the main focus.
Sam Bentley
August 30th, 2013 - 4:46pmDarn! Almost three years to old. That’s a little depressing… I’ll… I’ll just go sit in the corner with my sonic screwdriver… What!? No I’m… I’m not crying… My eyes are just… just sweating…
callum simmons
August 30th, 2013 - 10:27pmI’m 17 and I would love to but I’m too old. They always do these big doctor who competitions to children 13 or under the write a story one compose music one all of em.
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 4:41pm‘and a photo demonstrating why they’re the ultimate Who fan.’ what would you send in?
Alex
August 30th, 2013 - 5:42pmYou’d send in a picture showing how much you love your toy tardis. O_O

August 30th, 2013 - 4:34pmI am Dr Who’s biggest fan, I have been watching him since the 1960,s seen everyone of them, and I am looking forward to the new Dr Who at Christmas.
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 4:37pmYeah, doctor who magazine should do the same thing but for older whovians. You get a cyberman visit you in your work place and a VIP romantic husband and wife ticket to the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Celebration at the ExCel lol.
Timelord3
August 30th, 2013 - 4:47pmIf you have been watching in the 60s, wouldn’t you be over 13?
Alex
August 30th, 2013 - 5:45pmWatching it since the 60’s doesn’t naturally make you the biggest fan. It doesn’t matter how much merchandise you have or how long you’ve watched it.
We are all the biggest fans! Think about it, we’re the people who helped Doctor Who become what it is today! Doesnt that naturally make us the biggest fans anyway?

August 30th, 2013 - 4:33pmohh i cant enter
DWChris
August 30th, 2013 - 4:32pmKind of off topic, but has anyone else noticed that in the most recent issue the whoniverse collection (the one with the doctors) – The sixth doctor only has 1 part and no proper front cover, is this a mistake?
Mason Bingdwfan
August 30th, 2013 - 4:27pmI entered for the celebration in the national media museum and my story is going up on the gallery so this would be a bonus love to do this
DoctorArkham
August 30th, 2013 - 4:14pmI’d love to win but I hope that they don’t announce your name in school that you are the Doctor Who Super-Fan. I’d die of embarrassment :oops:. Mind you, I could always ask the Cyberman to delete my enemies- YES!
The Whofan101
August 30th, 2013 - 4:11pmI think the biggest fan is someone older than 13…
eddy
August 30th, 2013 - 4:18pmYH MAYBE, WOULD MIGHT MAKE SENSE, THEY COULD UNDERSTAND LITTLE MORE, NO OFFENSE 10 + YEAR OLDS
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 4:18pmI agree
thedaleksdeath
August 30th, 2013 - 11:38pmI’m 11 and I’ve watched or listened to every Dr Who episode, and I’m quite offended 🙁
MasterKasterborous
August 31st, 2013 - 8:48amAll 798 of them!? I’m getting there but was no where near that at 11. I suppose the new series had only been on 3 years when I was that age.
thedaleksdeath
August 31st, 2013 - 4:49pmYeah, I’ve been watching since the new series and then my granddad brought me Four to Doomsday and since then I’ve watched or listened to every episode since 2005
MasterKasterborous
September 1st, 2013 - 1:31pmThat’s pretty good going! I’m hoping to have seen/heard all the TV episodes before Series 8 starts so I can say I’ve seen all 800 episodes.
bsmith

Trenzalore

eddy
August 30th, 2013 - 4:19pmso you must be 12 – 20 years old am i right?
Trenzalore

eddy
August 30th, 2013 - 4:22pmreally good at your age to create such an amazing website, wish i could do that at your age range!
Trenzalore
August 30th, 2013 - 4:25pmThanks 😀 Good to know people have actually been on it! I am actually 14. so you got the right age range.
eddy

Trenzalore
