Doctor Who: New Radio Times Cover

Next week's edition of the Radio Times features a Doctor Who themed cover and an interview with Russell T Davies regarding David Tennant's last Doctor Who story:

John Simm is back, as the Master, fellow Time Lord and the Doctor’s arch nemesis for nearly four decades. But Russel T Davies wasn’t daunted by the inconvenience of having killed off the Master in 2007 - this is sci-fi, after all: “It’s personal for the Doctor. The Master is his enemy, his opposite, and yet so tantalisingly close to being his soul mate. There’s something epic about their sheer existence - the last two survivors of an ancient race. It’s a clash of the titans. Both of them heading for death, and yet both determined to survive - at any cost!”

The magazine is on sale now at all good newsagents priced £1.10 per copy. In other news: the titles for the Doctor Who Confidential episodes going behind the scenes on both parts of The End of Time have been confirmed as Lords and Masters and Allons-y!.

THE LAST VOYAGE - written by Dan Abnett, read by David Tennant
The Tardis materialises on board the maiden voyage of a pioneering space cruiser, travelling from Earth to the planet Eternity.

The Doctor has just started exploring the huge, hi-tech Interstitial Transposition Vehicle when there is a loud bang, a massive jolt and a flash of light. Shortly afterwards, he discovers that nearly all the passengers and crew have disappeared.

Unless the Doctor and flight attendant Sugar McAuley can take control and steer the ship, they could crash-land - or keep slipping through space forever. And as if that wasn't enough, something awful awaits them on Eternity...
