The 241st issue of Doctor Who Magazine was released on 4 July 1996 and removed from British newsstands on 31 July 1996. It served as a tribute to the late Jon Pertwee and his portrayal of the Third Doctor. Pertwee had recently passed away at the age of 76, and this issue was the magazine's farewell to the beloved actor.

  • Jon Pertwee remembered:
  • Nicholas Courtney played Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart opposite Jon Pertwee's Doctor in seventeen Doctor Who serials and two radio plays. Initially brought together by work, they went on to become very close friends off set as well as on.
  • Former Doctor Who producer John Nathan-Turner worked with Jon Pertwee -in different capacities - on countless occasions; during which time they developed a strong friendship.
  • Stuart Money founded and ran Jon Pertwee's fan club in the 1970s. Over the years, this 'business' relationship developed into something far more meaningful for both of them.
