Tennant's first interview

Meet the new Doctor in Doctor Who Magazine

"When I first got asked, I just laughed!" David Tennant tells Doctor Who Magazine, "I found it hilarious and impossible! It's very exciting, but there's this part of you that goes 'Jings! This is serious suddenly!'"

As well as a detailed chat about taking control of the TARDIS, there's the first of a two-part interview with executive producer Russell T Davies. He speaks candidly about casting two very different Doctors, attracting female viewers, and why the Doctor regenerated standing up!

Costume designer Lucinda Wright reveals the tricks of recreating the styles of the 1940s and 1980s - as well as predicting the fashions of the year Five Billion!

Plus there's the first part of a brand new comic strip adventure, The Cruel Sea, written by Dalek writer Rob Shearman, a Fact of Fiction article on the 1985 story Revelation of the Daleks, and all the latest news on the new series, including a new story title! Not to mention, the latest reviews of the series, and a special Production Notes on the origin of the Bad Wolf!
