The cover and info on this month's edition of Doctor Who magazine:
What's inside issue #438 of Doctor Who Magazine?
Doctor Who is back on TV for a brand new series! DWM catches up with its stars, Matt Smith (the Doctor) and Karen Gillan (Amy Pond) and asks, what do they think about the controversial title of the first episode, Let’s Kill Hitler?
Matt cracks up. “It’s Steven [Moffat, writer of Let’s Kill Hitler] being brilliant and mischievous. Also, it’s a direct reference to a line in the episode...”
“Pretty intense laughter from me, too,” confirms Karen Gillan, who plays Amy Pond, “when Steven told us. It’s just the best title ever… We were, like, ‘Amazing.’ I just love it, because it sounds a little bit controversial. But the subject matter is tackled really well in the episode...”
“Hitler was through and through, appallingly, disgustingly evil,” points out Steven Moffat. “Hitler would be deeply pissed off to know that we treated him as a minor comic character in an episode of Doctor Who. But actually the Hitler story is a bit of a red herring. It’s actually a blatant continuation of A Good Man Goes to War...”
THINGS TO COME
DWM previews the first four stories of the season - Let's Kill Hitler, Night Terrors, The Girl Who Waited and The God Complex - and talks to stars Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Alex Kingston (River Song) as well as all the writers: Steven Moffat, Mark Gatiss, Tom MacRae and Toby Whithouse.
