Centenary Special in DWM

 
Thursday's DWM promises 20 pages on the Centenary Special, with Patrick O'Kane, Sophie Aldred and Janet Fielding all interviewed, along with cover star Sacha Dhawan. 
The problem with preview interviews is that they use up an awful lot of page space to tell us absolutely nothing at all. It's all platitudes - how nice the director was, what a great bunch the guest artists were, how good the writing is, it will surprise / shock / amuse / entertain / make you cry / make you laugh etc, etc, etc.
Surely the title of the episode will finally be unveiled? If they can work a centenary into the plot they could just call it "Centenary". Might be something dull like "Her Greatest / Final /Ultimate Battle". Her first ever story made reference to her current gender, so perhaps the last one will as well.
DWM also features the second half of the Fact or Fiction piece on The Invasion of Time (the two Sontaran episodes), and Colin Lavers describes creating the Fifth Doctor's uniform (sorry, costume).
