November 17th, 2018 - 10:11pmI haven’t bought the last couple of issues of Doctor Who Magazine. Unfortunately I can take or leave the magazine, just like the current series. It’s not must see TV anymore, hence it’s not a must buy magazine.

November 18th, 2018 - 10:50amStill love the series but haven’t bought the mag for 8 years

November 16th, 2018 - 2:42pmHas there been another comic strip with that title? Seems really familiar
Doctor Mysterio
November 15th, 2018 - 3:51amI wish they’d stop putting the word ‘cosplay’ on the front. Why not say something like ‘costume tips’ instead. Adults buy this magazine as well. We’re not all 12 you know!

November 15th, 2018 - 7:11amAnd not everybody is an old man who likes reading the rating statistics. As you said the magazine is for everybody, so what’s wrong with having Cosplay for younger readers? Skip it if it bores you, it’s 4 pages out of 84.

Absolute Sad as anything to hear there OFFICALY is no Christmas special
Chris is just doing anything to be different without actually (in my opinion) Writing Good Scripts

November 14th, 2018 - 5:38pmEr, there is a special this year it’s just on a week later!
Whofan44
November 14th, 2018 - 6:39pmWell technically speaking it wont be this year it will be next year
Anonymous
November 14th, 2018 - 7:06pmYes,but it’s still a festive period special, why are people complaining? There is still a special being shown!

November 14th, 2018 - 7:46pmFrom what I’ve heard, the episode is actually ABOUT the beginning of 2019. So it makes sense. It’s not the first time we have had a New Year Special, maybe it’s time to start new tradition!
Doctor Mysterio
November 15th, 2018 - 3:56amI wonder if it was a deliberate snub, or a decision based on viewing figures of the last series, made before this episode was even written. It just seems odd that after all these years DW has been shunted from a coveted Christmas Day slot. I mean, I do remember back when we didn’t have any new Who for many years, but nowadays it’s supposed to be one of the jewels in their crown.

November 15th, 2018 - 9:39amNo it’s not a snub, it’s a creative decision to do a story linked to new years day 2019.

November 15th, 2018 - 8:13pmI think fans not appreciating why some are upset about it are rather lacking empathy. Christmas can be a lonely time for many, and a show like Doctor Who might be the only thing they’re looking forward to spending it alone.

November 16th, 2018 - 1:31amI appreciate that Leon, but that’s not a lack of empathy as no posts have indicated that situation. If somebody said that then I’d fully understand and offer my sympathies.
DalekAgent
November 14th, 2018 - 9:14amJust got this in the post and its 100% confirmed, there is no christmas special but there will be a new years day special, shame because i always looked forward to watching it at night after opening presents at christmas
Still Not Ginger
November 14th, 2018 - 10:59amWhat exactly did they say about it?

November 14th, 2018 - 11:06amXmas day or new years day, doesn’t make a difference to me as long as we have an extra episode at the holiday festive season.
Demdike@CultLabs
November 14th, 2018 - 2:12pm@Still not Ginger – Just says they preview the New Years Day episode on the coming next issue page.
DalekAgent
November 14th, 2018 - 2:35pmYeah it just says on the preview for next issue “exclusive preview of the new years days special”
Anonymous
November 14th, 2018 - 10:12pmSo is the next issue the christmas issue?
DalekAgent
November 15th, 2018 - 9:55amYeah it will be, it also comes with a poster and still costs £5.99

November 14th, 2018 - 2:10pmIn a fashion. Previews that say nothing whatsoever about plot points.
