The Basics - Issue 113, June 1986. The front cover is a photo of the Third Doctor, with Jon Pertwee interviewed inside, and the back cover is a photo of Tegan from Resurrection of the Daleks.

News And Views - The second story of the new season's working title is Mindwarp, while the last story will not necessarily be written by the same author. Joan Sims will guest star in the first story, which will be made on OB video and not film.

Reviews - Off The Shelf reviews the two Companions Of Doctor Who spinoffs. The Summer 86 Merchandise Review covers The Robots of Death on VHS ("possibly the most exciting of the videos that the BBC have so far released"), the Nicola Bryant Myth Makers video, computer games, Fine Art Castings and Sevan Models.

Notables - The Season Flashbacks debut with the first season, to follow on from last issue's Nostalgia. In the DW Casting Competition results for a possible film, one Gareth Roberts suggests Michael Caine as the Doctor.

Boxpops - Top of the pop charts in June 86 were Spirit In The Sky by Dr and The Medics and The Edge of Heaven by Wham!

Skaro Says - Logo Polish remembers the Jon Pertwee interview as being highly opinionated and interesting, sticking up for his own era and giving his views on other eras of the show. Si Hart is not surprised that there was such a Pertwee backlash in later years following such high praise! He loves the cover, citing it as one of his favourite Pertwee pictures.

The Back Cover

Mmmm - feisty...
