Tides of Time, issue 26, published 2000

I’ve uploaded another issue of the Oxford University Doctor Who Society magazine, Tides of Time, as a PDF. It’s a very strong mixture of material, including some of my favourite articles from the entire run, such as David Bickley’s confessions of explaining your fandom at job interviews (I’ve been there too), Fiona Moore’s ‘Continuity – A Modest Proposal’, Al Harrison’s look at the works of J.G. Ballard and Matthew Peacock’s own piece on the rail yards at Barry, unaware that in just over four years Doctor Who, revived, would be filming there. There’s fiction of the adventurous and traditional sorts too, all very much reflecting the era of BBC Books original fiction and showing great affection for the eighth and sixth doctors in particular, though there is an early Big Finish review examining then producer Gary Russell’s policies and how releases such as The Spectre of Lanyon Moor support them.

If you’ve not already downloaded the issue, you can do so here.
