We're back with another Issue of views, reviews and loads of waffle. With the 50th Anniversary just a matter of weeks away, this Issue provides all Doctor Who fans with a somewhat silly companion piece for the present time. 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...

Thanks Matt - and Goodbye!

I don’t think the word ‘shock’ is the right word to use to describe Matt Smith’s exit as The Doctor - we’ve been hearing rumours for the past year or so, maybe ‘surprise’ is the best way to describe it.   At first I felt a bit sad, I must admit, but that was quickly forgotten in favour of gratitude to a young actor who gave his all in what is, the most demanding acting role in television. We’ll always have a soft spot for Matt here at the fanzine - in those early days, way, way back in 2010, he was The Doctor who was up against a tidal wave of disgraceful abuse from some fans , whom tended to judge him on looks, videos of filming and the fact that he wasn’t David Tennant. BEFORE they even saw one of his episodes.   So naturally we (well most fans really, we won’t take credit that we don’t deserve) rallied behind him and the series, as it was those run of episodes that made us fall in love with Doctor Who all over again and start this mag.   And you know what? He ...

New Year - New Issues!

After a somewhat quiet Christmas, we're all set for a busy year of Doctor Who!  But like everyone in the UK at the moment, we're shit scared of the all the snow outside and we're even finding it difficult to sneak past hoards of snowmen so we can panic buy bread, milk and DWM's from the local supermarket. So with all that in mind, we're stuck on our computers and have decided to get on with this year's issues. We're looking for the usual 'anything to do with Doctor Who' scribblings, to be more specific however, we're mainly looking for reviews of the latest episode of Doctor Who, The Snowmen .  We need as many in-depth reviews as possible - positive, negative or both! So don't be put off if you don't share the general reaction, in fact, we'll love to hear as many different point of views as possible! Please make you reviews no more than 750 words and no less than 1. Any number between the two is also fine.  Seeing as it's the 50...
