Doctor Who Magazine Issue 430

magazine-dwm4302Doctor Who Magazine Issue 430

In a brand new interview for Doctor Who Magazine, MATT SMITH and KAREN GILLAN reveal their secret thoughts about each other – and what’s in store for their characters in their second series…

“There are some great monsters coming up in Series Two,” says Matt. “Steven Moffat has created the greatest monsters since the Weeping Angels. It might even eclipse the Angels for me…”

“I think it’s the scariest one yet,” agrees Karen, “physically and just what it does. They’ve got one thing about them that feels almost undefeatable…”

    Maybe not on the front, but it could be much different on the inside.

    What is The Time Team?

    The Time Team was a regular feature in DWM. The members of the team (there’s four) watched the entire run of Classic episodes in order, with one episode per issue. They comment and talk about the episode in question.

    ive only read this book once before but i get dwa because its cheaper.

    Actually, if you saved your money for a month this IS cheaper.
    It’s about £9 for a month’s worth DWA, wheras this is £4.50 for much more interesting content and more pages for your money.

    what is the point of this magazine?

    There is a major difference! If one magazine had to be stopped, DWA would go. There’s not much point to DWA, except for kids. This magazine has proper news and reveals exclusive information about the show. This is much more interesting, and couldn’t live without it! 🙂
    I stopped collecting DWA a long time ago; I got bored of the childish comics, reused gifts, etc. The comic strips in this magazine are really good! The Majenta Pryce arc (2009) was even better than some…

    YES!!! The Time Team are back!!! Can’t wait to get this. 😀

    They seem to be going for a design that lots of other sci-fi magazines use – very SFX-like.

    Yay, this has to be the best cover since The Wedding Special cover, which was amazing. I love the way that they do not have a stupid coloured rectangle with features at the top now, and I love how they (maybe) are going to do 2 interviews per issue!
    Cannot wait to find out about Series Thirty-two, and I soooooooo want to read the interviews with Matt and Karen. I am loving the whole thing, and am loving the whole Series Thirty Two, BRILLIANT WORK STEVEN, and that’s just the trailer.
