The Big Issue Celebrates Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary

This week's The Big Issue is a celebration of the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary.

They say:

• It’s the Christmas period. It really is. We kick off our run of five bumper editions with a Doctor Who special. As the anniversary of that show approaches, with a number of doctors together on screen and fan mania growing, we have a collection of fantastic features. These include an interview with Matt Smith detailing working on screen with David Tennant; a piece from Mark Gatiss, a Who-obsessive, screenwriter, man of letters; some pieces from Karen Gillan and Eddie Izzard, and a panel of experts explaining what deeply held psychological fear each Who monster plays to and why we can’t escape them. A salute to Laura Kelly and Adrian Lobb who worked tirelessly to put this stuff together.
• There is also a big Doctor Who competition with prizes including a TARDIS teapot. 

Pick up your copy from your local vendor.

This information comes from The Big Issue's office manager, Robert White.

Robert says that enquiries should be addressed to his email address:

Or phone 0141 352 7280.

 Robert adds that copies can be posted out. The total cost for UK sales including postage would be £7.64 GBP.

Overseas customers will need to contact Robert to discuss postal costs.

We cannot stress enough, however, that for UK fans all efforts should be made to locate aBig Issue vendor and purchase a copy directly from them. The scheme is intended as a means for homeless people to help themselves by having an occupation and a legitimate income and this will ensure that revenue from the sales go directly to the vendor. The postal option should only be used as a last resort.
