The cover and info on this month's edition of Doctor Who magazine:
William Russell, the original star of Doctor Who, talks candidly about his time in the Tardis in Doctor Who Magazine - Issue 448.
Sixties action hero William Russell, talks to DWM about his role as science teacher Ian Chesterton, companion to the First Doctor in the very earliest days of the series:
"William Hartnell never forgave me for leaving," he reveals. "He
couldn't understand it, which was nice in a way. He said to me, 'What's
the matter with you? You've got three kids, you've got a job, we're
having a great time - what more do you want?!' 'I want to do a play,
Bill.' He didn't understand that. Maybe he was right. But he never
forgave me for jumping ship."
