It was the final BBC annual to feature the Tenth Doctor — something which was a significant part of the marketing of the book.

Like most British annuals, it was actually published in the late summer of the year prior to the cover year. This is why it featured the Tenth and not the Eleventh Doctor. It was the final BBC annual to feature the Tenth Doctor — something which was a significant part of the marketing of the book.
