    This is an excellent issue so far. Only had a chance to read a bit of it after the obligatory flick through – its a nice visual treat, especially the comic strip (which i always read first) and the Sarah Jane tribute.

      Along with the Eurovision themed episode, the current makers really want the series to be axed dont they.

      Yep AA, it’s on the verge of being cancelled… every year for the last 20, according to fandom. 🙂 Isn’t time everyone just relaxes on this topic again? Even if it does get taken off the air (which will happen at some point), it’s been 20 years so far.

      ‘DeliveryRus’…..exactly my point

    32 page supplement of RTD’s ramblings of years gone by? No thanks! That’ll be going straight in the bin.

      Throw it in the bin then, you don’t have to buy it or read it. Others will want it though.

      I’ve been waiting years to have them collected! I was even tempted to create my own book from scans.

      Ah shame I was waiting for the Hardback limited edition version, but will have to put up with a 32 page booklet,

    What is he actually wearing? It worked much better when there was one costume/variants of which the Doctor wore.

    Getting a bit fed up with the Fact of Fiction ignoring the Thirteenth Doctor era.

      You can’t write an article if the behind the scenes information is still embargoed

    • Joe

      March 27th, 2025 - 7:53pm

      I totally agree

    • djs

      March 28th, 2025 - 6:55am

      Didnt realise it was embargoed, that explains the lack of them.

    • Andy R

      March 28th, 2025 - 11:46am

      Why embargoed? Fact of fiction looks at influences in the episodes or interesting tid bits, not like it will reveal state secrets – its already been on TV. Odd!
