BBC Video This month they released an unconnected pair of stories. One was a failed pilot and the other was a six part set up for Planet of the Daleks.
Did I buy them? Yes - both from Amazon's £4.99 Doctor Who video sale. I bought multiple copies and sold the extras for 2-300% profits. |

Missing Adventures The holder of the title "Most Knowingly Awful Title Ever" until Keith Topping's The Devil Goblins From Neptune came out. You'd need to be an uber-fan to get away with Invasion of the Cat People
Did I buy it? No. I was curious just now and bobbed to Amazon to see how much copies go for (90p) and saw two savaging reviews and lost interest. |

DWM Placing all these merchandise items together you can see how DWM ties in with them. K9's spin-off comes out so he gets a magazine cover and Leeson gets to tell his crawling-about-in-rehearsals story again. DWM being a 28-day publication, this was the two-issue month. Did I buy it? Yes - it was during a phase of not reading DWM but I certainly bought it.

Attack of the Cybermen audiobook Colin Baker reads an abridgement of Eric Saward's novelisation of "Attack of the Cybermen". Ninety minutes of Colin impersonating everyone from Nicola Bryant to the policemen who don't say anything.
Did I buy it? Maybe. I think I got it on one of those MP3 collections. Unless it's on the one I haven't got. I have got one of the tapes but I think it was the Pertwee one. |
