Additional details

 * The year is not displayed on the front cover.
 * The main cover image is from DW: The Monster of Peladon.
 * Interestingly the Archive feature, retelling the story, starts Episode One with “Doctor Who takes the Brigadier …”
 * The Matrix Data Bank answers a readers query regarding the disappearance of the Star Profiles features which were alternating with interviews. The explanation given is that the biographical information (basis of the Star Profiles) often came out at the start of interviews and was felt to be more reliable.

 * Dave Gibbons returns to draw the Fourth Doctor's swansong.
