Boxpops - Top of the pop charts in May 86 were the continuing A Different Corner, Rock Me Amadeus by Falco and The Chicken Song by Spitting Image.

Skaro Says - Nathan Cooke remembers the reverse cover (their April Fool for the year), and imagines that it caused a few problems at W H Smiths! Craig Rollins wasn't very happy at the news that Peri was going, and had a feeling that she was going to be killed off. He wonders if anyone liked Rock Me Amadeus - Jonno did, and even taped it off the radio! Jonno really liked the new Nostalgia articles, particularly enjoying the telesnap-like photos, which made a change from the standard BBC publicity photos. Again, in those pre-video days, it was great to read more about the vintage stories and he was jealous to read of the older viewers' comments who had seen the stories. He also liked the new comic strip in this issue. Logo Polish was also fascinated by the new small photos from The Daleks - having read the book years earlier, it was spooky to see these images. Si Hart loved the double covers, and still does! His subscription ran out with this issue, and he couldn't find subsequent ones in the local shops, but luckily got a nice parcel of back issues a few months later to fill the gap! Andrew Curnow doesn't remember the double cover at all. He remembers the launch of Nostalgia, and again enjoyed the telesnap-like photos, and having a different viewpoint to the stories, namely the viewers'. He agrees that Fury From The Deep was, and still is, a good book - he bought the hardcover of that, along with The Celestial Toymaker and The Mind Robber that year.
