Advantages: ALWAYS BE UP TO DATE WITH DOCTOR WHO INFORMATION

Disadvantages: A WHOLE MONTH BETWEEN ISSUES !

The Doctor Who monthly magazine has had it's lean years.Be honest what can they write about when the show was off air for so long? Yet another interview with the guy who played the third Cyberman on the left lost them all but the hardcore Whovians.
All this has turned around since Russell T Davies brought back the series to become a staple of Saturday night viewing.
The magazine gets exclusive access to behind the scenes information and is a very informative publication.
People not enthrauled by the adventures of the Doctor may find it hard to see the interest of a publication like this.
Doctor Who fans have had a bad rap in the past for being geeks but this magazine will show the wide diversity of Who fandom covering the full spread of the population.
The magazine covers all the aspects of filming,Ok lets say most aspects, they do not go into such details as lighting arrangements for scenes etc, but the work of Neil Gorton's millenium studio's is well covered. If you want to know how the brilliant masks are made for the monsters in each episode, chances are it's going to be covered.
The current issues have so much information about the new series that it is only on odd occassions that the classic series episodes get featured, this is fair enough as the majority of readers are buying for information on the current series.
An informative read probably targeted at mid teens and upwards ( there is the Doctor Who Adventures comic for the younger readers)

Summary: INFORMATIVE READ
