Additional details

 * Additional Input: Letters Page (from DWM 53): February is spelt wrong on the cover and the internal photograph featuring a blazing Dalek and Exillons is wrongly credited to a Tom Baker story and not a Jon Pertwee one!
 * The cover image is from DW: Full Circle
 * The` Companions` feature article is a bumper ten pages and goes up to Romana 2.
 * No Fantastic Facts in this issue.
 * Alan McKenzie, former features editor takes over as full editor from Paul Neary.
 * Early stories (with individual episode titles) were not conventionally titled. Hence `The Massacre`, `The Massacre of Bartholomew`, `The Massacre of St. Bartholomew` and `The Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Eve`.
 * The year is not included on the front cover, which had a cover price of 30p (UK).
