Doctor Who Adventures #75

The Tardis Base has now been sent the cover and details for Doctor Who Adventures issue 75 which was released today. Inside the issue you can read an interview with Freema Agyeman, take a vote on your favourite monster and more. Below is the press release;


Freema Agyeman, known to Doctor Who fans as Martha Jones, tells Doctor Who Adventures what it was like returning to the series in this week’s issue.

‘I was thrilled to be back!’ says Freema. ‘I was going back to see so many wonderful people who I considered friends. We were all really buzzing!’

What does she think Martha feels about Rose?
‘She’s happy for the Doctor. He loves Rose and she can see that. However, Martha is too busy to worry about them – because deciding whether or not to blow up the Earth is at the forefront of her mind!’

Plus we find out all essential information – does Freema find Daleks scary?
‘I find the Cybermen more menacing – I think it’s their humanoid form. But obviously the Daleks are superior, and long may they reign!’

What was it like being with all those companions?
‘Elisabeth Sladen was the biggest breath of normality. If you wanted to be naughty, hang around John Barrowman and you’ll be in trouble in minutes! Catherine is hilarious and Billie is great to talk to!’

Doctor Who Magazine #398 Out Now

The cover and details for Doctor Who Magazine #398, which was released today at the price of £3.99 at all good newsagents and comic shops, has been released. Below is the press release;


Everybody's Talkin' ... In Doctor Who Magazine 398!

Davros himself, actor Julian Bleach, talks exclusively about taking on the role of the Daleks’ creator in the latest Doctor Who Magazine...

Is the fact that other actors have played the part in the past a help or a hindrance? “That can make it harder to approach it afresh,” considers Julian, “but it’s more of a problem if you’re trying to find a new interpretation of the character. What I was trying to do with Davros was to recreate – and match as closely as possible – a previously established character.” So what’s Julian’s take on Davros? Twisted megalomaniac? Mad scientist? Misguided genius? “All of those things, but I’d say the character was very probably originally inspired by Hitler, and I found that to be quite a useful reference point, particularly in some of his more dogmatic speeches!”

It’s not just Davros who’s quizzed this issue – DWM has been keeping up with the Joneses (Martha, Francine, Harriet and Ianto), the Smiths (Mickey, Sarah Jane, Luke and Mr Smith, and even the Doctor at one point) and a host of Tylers and Nobles, as well as the odd Mott, Cooper and Harkness. This, then, is one of DWM’s most ambitious projects ever: in issue 398, DWM talks to the entire regular and returning cast of The Stolen Earth and Journey’s End! Find out which former companion had to have an injection to stop her vomiting. Discover whose bottom to hold onto in a crisis, and whose gave Catherine Tate a shock. Learn which actress is happy to “mug away in the background.” And establish who would win in a Dalek Crucible-based wind-breaking competition!

DWM 398 features exclusive interviews with: David Tennant, Catherine Tate, Freema Agyeman, Billie Piper, John Barrowman, Gareth David-Lloyd, Eve Myles, Penelope Wilton, Jacqueline King, Bernard Cribbins, Noel Clarke, Camille Coduri, Adjoa Andoh, Elisabeth Sladen, Thomas Knight, John Leeson, Alexander Armstrong, Nicholas Briggs, Julian Bleach, David Tennant (again!) & Richard Dawkins.

Plus;
• The Doctor and Donna’s battle with the Sycorax reaches its explosive climax in the final part of the latest full colour comic strip The Widow’s Curse.
• Showrunner Russell T Davies reveals exclusively what won’t be in Series Five.
• The chance to vote for your favourites in DWM’s annual Season Survey
• The latest news on the forthcoming Doctor Who Specials and Series Two of The Sarah Jane Adventures.
• And... all the latest news, exclusive photos, reviews, previews, competitions… and a choice of four fantastic covers to collect!

There are four different covers to choose from for Doctor Who Magazine #398. Issue 399 will be released on the 21st of August and will feature an interview with Catherine Tate and much more. Did you get Doctor Who Magazine #398 today? Please leave your comments. Thanks!

Steven Moffat's Childhood Dream

The picture above was made by me.

Steven Moffat recently revealed that he turned down a £500,000 movie deal with Steven Spielberg, a very famous movie director so he could work on series 5 of Doctor Who. He told the Daily Mail how he quit the deal with Peter Jackson, maker of Lord of the Rings, to fulfil his child hood dream of working on Doctor Who.

Moffat said: 'I know a lot of people won't understand it but I've been dreaming about writing for Doctor Who since I was seven.

'There are no bad feelings between Spielberg and me, but Doctor Who has to come before Hollywood.'

The show has enjoyed a renaissance. I am working on scripts to be filmed next year. Russell T. Davies is doing four specials next and then my shows will begin. The show is all-consuming.'

One Hollywood insider said: 'No one walks away from Spielberg and all that money for a show no one has heard of. I mean, what is this doctor show about? It sounds a little silly.'

Steven Moffat previously signed a one Million contract to write the first two in the TinTin trilogy for Steven Spielberg’s £150 million but has turned the job after completing the first one and will continue his work for series five of Doctor Who. More on this story can be found here. What do think of this news? Please leave your comments. Thanks!

Details have been released about 3 upcoming Doctor Who novels which each have a returning foe from the tv series. They will be published by Random House UK. The novel titles are Judgement of the Judoon, Prisoner of the Daleks and The Slitheen Excursion. The synopses can be read below;

Judgement of the Judoon
Elvis the King Spaceport has grown into the sprawling city-state of New Memphis - an urban jungle, where organized crime is rife. But the launch of the new Terminal 13 hasn't been as smooth as expected. And things are about to get worse... When the Doctor arrives, he finds the whole terminal locked down. The notorious Invisible Assassin is at work again, and the Judoon troopers sent to catch him will stop at nothing to complete their mission. With the assassin loose on the mean streets of New Memphis, the Doctor is forced into a strange alliance. Together with teenage private eye Nikki and a ruthless Judoon Commander, the Doctor soon discovers that things are even more complicated - and dangerous - than he first thought... Featuring the Doctor as played by David Tennant in the hit BBC Television series.

The Slitheen Excursion
1500BC - King Actaeus and his subjects live in mortal fear of the awesome gods who have come to visit their kingdom in ancient Greece. Except the Doctor, visiting with university student June, knows they're not gods at all. They're aliens. For the aliens, it's the perfect holiday - they get to tour the sights of a primitive planet and even take part in local customs. Like gladiatorial games, or hunting down and killing humans who won't be missed. With June's enthusiastic help, the Doctor soon meets the travel agents behind this deadly package holiday company - his old enemies the Slitheen. But can he bring the Slitheen excursion to an end without endangering more lives? And how are events in ancient Greece linked to a modern-day alien plot to destroy what's left of the Parthenon? Featuring the Doctor as played by David Tennant in the hit BBC Television series.

Prisoner of the Daleks
The Daleks are advancing, their empire constantly expanding in to Earth's space. The Earth forces are resisting the Daleks in every way they can. But the battles rage on across countless solar systems. And now the future of our galaxy hangs in the balance... The Doctor finds himself stranded on board a starship near the frontline with a group of ruthless bounty hunters. Earth Command will pay them for every Dalek they kill, every eye stalk they bring back as proof. With the Doctor's help, the bounty hunters achieve the ultimate prize: a Dalek prisoner - intact, powerless, and ready for interrogation. But where the Daleks are involved, nothing is what it seems, and no one is safe. Before long the tables will be turned, and how will the Doctor survive when he becomes a prisoner of the Daleks? Featuring the Doctor as played by David Tennant in the hit BBC Television series.

Each book consists of 256 pages and will feature the Doctor alone. The books are hardback and are expected to be released on April 16th 2009. Judgement of the Judoon is written by Colin Brake, Prisoner of the Daleks is written by Trevor Baxendale and The Slitheen Excursion is written by Simon Guerrier. Will you be getting these novels?
