I know a lot of people have given up on DWM but if you are one of those people who still buy the occasional one because there's something specific in it, then I'd recommend the latest issue. Too late to be included in last month's, other than a small news item, this one has a major amount of material about the return of the two missing episodes of The Daleks' Master Plan. 39 pages of it as a matter of fact. As well as the story behind the recovery, and the work done to conserve the episodes, we have an interview with Peter Purves as well as a piece about how he came to see them again recently - tricked, in a nice way, into thinking he was going to be discussing something else - and reviews of the episodes. A number of Doctor Who figures also give their reactions. Quite a few screengrabs from the episodes illustrate the articles, as well as images we may have seen before - though a number of these have been colourised.
If you're a fan of the classic era in general, and the monochrome years in particular, then I'd certainly seek this one out.
