'Doctor Who - The Iron Legion' Review
When Doctor Who Magazine started in 1979, one of the first things that creator and founding editor Dez Skinn introduced was the comic strip; which depicted the ongoing adventures of The Doctor, (played by Tom Baker) outside the TV series. And, 40 years later, that comic strip is still ongoing, now depicting the adventures of Jodie Whitaker's Doctor. Over the 40 years of the magazine's existence, the strip has gone through many changes, (changes in editors and art style, changing from black-and-white to color, the ongoing regeneration of the actor playing The Doctor), but the heart has remained very much the same. And, having now read this collection of strips from the early days of the magazine, I can see why these strips are talked about with such reverence. The Iron Legion collection features some of the most interesting ideas ever seen in a Doctor Who story, some larger than life characters and a wonderful art style thanks to Dave Gibbons, and it is a fantastic read.

'Doctor Who' Series 12 Needs to Reintroduce the "Doctor-Lite" Tradition

Series 11 introduced not only a new Doctor, but three new companions, a new TARDIS exterior and interior, new behind the camera crew, all new writers, and a new showrunner, Chris Chibnall, who also casted the show’s first ever female Doctor, Jodie Whittaker.

On "Rosa" - 'Doctor Who'
At the end of last year, British TV was introduced to the new face of Doctor Who with its first-ever female actress, Jodie Whittaker, as the leading protagonist. Being a person who’s generally interested in the discourse of popular culture, as well as being a veteran “Whovian,” this was something that really intrigued me. It pushed many questions to the front of my mind about the show and its agenda in a way that I never considered before as a sci-fi loving pre-teen. What sort of messages were to be made about diversity and inclusivity? Were they ready for the potential backlash that could come from it? To be honest, after a while these questions fell from my mind and public interest shortly after the announcement; the UK government’s falling to pieces and I had a history essay due to think about. But it was one day recently, after stumbling upon my favourite childhood show, that Doctor Who came to the forefront of my mind once more but for some less than comfortable reasons.

Matt Smith's Debut 'Doctor Who' Episode Was Based on Moffat's Childhood Dream
Doctor Who is one of the most popular shows ever since it began back in 1963. From a regenerating Time Lord to deadly enemies, Doctor Who has a lot to offer if you've never watched the show before. The BBC cancelled the show in 1989, but Russell T. Davies brought the show back in 2005 and it was bigger (and better?)!

Top 10 'Doctor Who' Episodes: The Twelfth Doctor's Era
This list was a slightly different experience for me because I was watching two of the Twelfth Doctor's seasons for the first time whereas all the other season before now were re-watches. I think Peter Capaldi did a fantastic job and I do like Twelve; however, his seasons are probably my least favourites of the show so far so I was happy to find a few gems that I loved a lot and think deserve to be seen and appreciated.
