(You can download our latest Issue for free here ) --- A s we know by now Jenna Coleman has made her exit from Doctor Who, so we’re on the lookout for a new companion for the upcoming series. So who is next? Which sort of companion (or companions) should The Doctor travel around with? Should he even have a companion? Well yes, otherwise this entire article would be utterly pointless. So unlike those build-a-bear shops you see littered around the large, uninspiring, zombie-filled shopping centres in major cities around the world - let’s build an uplifting and inspiring companion! Male? There’s been a rumbling underground campaign amongst forum-dwellers for a while about this issue. I suppose that Rory has arguably been the only (regular) male companion since the series came back in 2005. Even ...

If we were a little bit sexist, then we'll say that waiting for a new Issue of Fish Fingers and Custard is like waiting for the right woman , who will turn up fashionably late. So, just imagine that woman turns up 3 months late? You're not bothered, because she's great, she's different . Beautiful, funny, masterful , if you will. What a woman .  Well, we're nothing like that, apart from being 3 months late, we contain the same-old love and spelling mistakes that you've come to expect. Anyway, here are the details of how to buy the new issue, which has got nothing to do with Series 8, despite the rubbish I've just written above: *PLEASE NOTE THIS ISSUE IS NOW SOLD OUT* For a finely-printed, but adequately put-together paper copy of the fanzine, the prices are as follows: UK - £2 Rest of the World - £4.50 To order a copy, please send the payment that applies to you, via PayPal to fishcustardfanzine@googlemail.com (please mark your paymen...

We're tentatively stepping out, like a drunken woman outside a nightclub with no shoes on at 5am, to announce that we're back from our self-imposed sabbatical and are ready for another new Issue. But like the aforementioned lady, let's call her Fanny, we need a taxi to get her home - and less wet than she already is. It's raining. We want YOU to be that taxi driver and to contribute to help to get Fanny home. In other words, we're after contributions for the new Issue. For this Issue we're looking for the following written works: The Anniversary - what you did/how you watched the 50th Anniversary story The Time of The Doctor - Your review of Matt Smith's swansong as The Doctor The Matt Smith era - what you enjoyed/what you disliked/how the show will move forward Peter Capaldi - your take on the casting and his appearance in The Time of The Doctor OR...anything else you can think of. As long as it's Doctor Who-related If you'd like to get...

We're back with another Issue of views, reviews and loads of waffle.

In this Issue: Reviews of the latest Doctor Who episodes Thanks Matt Smith - we say goodbye to Doctor #11 Cyberman No3 - with a Five Doctors twist Review of the Doctor Who Proms (or 'Prom' if you're being pedantic) Peter Capaldi - our take on the casting Plus Much More Prices (includes P+P) UK: £2 Rest of the World: £4 You can order a copy of this mediocre printed mag by sending the payment that applies to you, via PayPal, to fishcustardfanzine@googlemail.com and please mark your payment as 'family or friends', we're neither, but if you buy a fanzine, we'll be your friend for life. Oh and make sure you include your name and address too, so we can send you your mag. We won't stalk you or anything. Not if you do...
