Doctor Who Magazine - Issue 493

Panini have issued the cover and details of the next edition of Doctor Who magazine:

WHAT IS TO BECOME OF CLARA OSWALD? DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE PREVIEWS THE AMAZING FINAL EPISODES - IN ISSUE 493!

Doctor Who magazine looks ahead to the dramatic final episodes of the latest series - Sleep No More, Face the Raven, Heaven Sent and Hell Bent, and talks to to the writers of the episodes: Mark Gatiss,  Sarah Dollard and showrunner Steven Moffat. We also catch up with the director of the series finale, Rachel Talalay and the Doctor himself, Peter Capaldi…

"The whole episode’s quite big," Peter tells DWM of the twelfth and final episode of the series, Hell Bent. "It’s huge, actually - but also there’s a sadness, a romance, and a tragedy to episode 12," he says. "It’s just so romantic. It’s very effective. And I loved all the stuff on one particular set. I was very excited. It looks so modern - a Kubrick-y kind of vibe. It was very nice. We’re in a very interesting place, because we’re competing with bigger shows, frankly. Most American shows have four times the budget per episode that we have, but that’s what we’re up against. We’re competing with Game of Thrones… This is traditional for Doctor Who, but it goes to show what this amazing production team can achieve."
