Additional details

 * Additional Input: Matrix Data Bank (From DWM 75) David J Howe corrects the statement concerning the Key to Time in the Matrix Data Bank. The pieces did in fact fit together to form a cube, but were not held together by the Tracer, for which a separate prop was used. Incidentally, the first and sixth segments were identical.
 * The year is not displayed on the front cover.
 * The main background cover image is from DW: Snakedance.
 * A Free Doctor Who Monthly sticker was attached to this issue as depicted on the cover (actual size as shown on the cover).
 * The price also rose 5p to 50p a month.
 * Richard Landen takes over from Jeremy Bentham after three years.
