December 4th, 2025 - 5:49pmThis time last December I bought the Dr Who magazine with Nguti Gatwa wearing a dressing gown on the cover……
This time NEXT year…..who knows……perhaps a cover picture of Billie Piper wearing, I dunno, a Barbour coat….?
And waving a fantastic looking new sonic screwdriver……?

December 4th, 2025 - 5:24pmLast issue I bought was ‘Ncuti Gatwa is the Doctor’ in December 2023. Think I’ll be getting this one as it’s oh so rare to see a spin-off being the cover of an issue. Genuinely excited for it.
Difficult to find at all here in Ireland which has furthered me from picking it up in general.
Which 9th Doctor audio is it btw?
