Issue 18 - Download NOW!

-
With the world possibly coming to the end, we’d thought it the perfect time to make a dramatic return
to ensure we don't go out on an odd number.

Providing Doctor Who fans with something to read on the toilet since 2010, we are delighted to be back and are ready to tackle the news, views and issues currently surrounding the show. Oh dear.

Packed with the same old nonsense as before (just slightly older and better dressed), in Issue 18, you will find:
  • The Curse of Time – Are all Doctor Who stories with ‘Time’ in the title destined to not be very good?
  • The Doctor Who Cookbook – A review of one of the more ‘left-field’ official publications.
  • 10 Years of Fish Custard – How we took 4 years off but still claim to have been ‘fanzining’ for a decade.
  • Returning Villains – Which classic Who baddies are due for a return?
  • Obituaries for John Hurt and Deborah Watling
  • And plenty more besides
You can download the issue here (click the link, then save it to your device) or read online here. Please note that we will NOT be producing print copies for the foreseeable future – this may change dependent upon demand.

To receive future updates about the fanzine (there WILL be more in the next few months – it’s not like we have anything better to do!) please consider signing up for our mailing list.

If you would like to contribute to future issues (assuming the world doesn’t end), feel free to send an e-mail to fishcustardfanzine@googlemail.com – and don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook too.

Cheers – and keep yourself safe.

Cash Cows Go To Cardiff!

As I write this, the BBC (or BBC Worldwide) have dropped a bollock by announcing an official convention, with Matt Smith and Steven Moffat. Great news! Well, not really. To get into the convention, you have to part with £99 which doesn’t include autographs ( £20/25 per signature, depending on whichever person you want to sign) and photographs at the same price.  All that is before you have to think about travel to and from Cardiff, food, drink and hotels...it all mounts up. I’m not for one minute saying that you shouldn’t go, as that’s up to you, but surely you can see that this is just a blatant rip-off? Using Doctor Who as a tool to rake in money in the most obscene way possible – by ripping off the very people who love it. And I’ve not even mentioned the best bit yet – Children aren’t really welcome... You heard me right, Children and Families - the very people the show is made for, are NOT advised to attend. What does the convention contain? Lapdancers with Cybermen ...

Issue 2 Preview

Issue 2 is now out in print and available to purchase! The free download will be available next week. So in the meantime..here is a little something from Issue 2 to wet your appetite! ALL THE TABLOID NEWSPAPER RUMOURS – ALL THE TIME Matt Smith Is Rubbish And Is Getting Sacked D octor Who fans have seemingly got their way. A bloke I spoke to down the pub reckons that Matt Smith will be sacked as Doctor Who, because ‘he isn’t as good as David Tennant and the geeks don’t like him’. Message Boards have been awash with calls for the actor, 16, to be booted out. I must say that I agree with them, as the internet is never wrong. Not that I steal anything off there and publish it here, mind. Despite smashing all records for most views on the BBC IPlayer and viewing figures on BBC America, SPACE and some Australian channel (not to mention the upturn in profits of DVD’s, books and other merchandise) the interest in Doctor Who is at an all-time low and I know this because my ‘insider’ said so (w...
