History

The Fourth Doctor once wrote and dispatched two letters at a post office on Ganymede on 42 Paztenmber, relative to 1845 "Earth-time", as the Doctor wanted to ensure his letters arrived in time to be printed in the first issue of Doctor Who Weekly. In the first letter, the Doctor talked about several features in the magazine and recommended the 879^th issue, and in the second letter, the Doctor explained how to use the rub-down action transfers included in the 1^st, 2^nd, 3^rd, and 4^th issues on two colour panoramas illustrated by Dave Gibbons. (PROSE: A Letter from the Doctor)

On 29 April, 2016, Peter Capaldi was requested to write a letter for the 500^th, as well as either the 1,000^th or 100,000^th issue, but the actor couldn't remember which.

In his letter, he wrote about how he was proud about the magazine and how it inspired fans to "write their own stories, draw their own pictures, and make their own music and films". (PROSE: A Letter from the Doctor)

On 10 May 2020, a desktop icon was seen on Petronella Osgood's laptop. (WC: The Zygon Isolation)

Alternate universes

There also existed a Doctor Who Magazine in a universe where the Doctor was entirely fictional. (PROSE: The Thief of Sherwood) Doctor Who Weekly also existed in a meta-fiction universe where the adventures of the Doctor were also fictional. (COMIC: TV Action!)

Behind the scenes

This is clearly a reference to the real world magazine, referencing logos used in the 90s (note that color might change with each issue, so while the particular colors shown here might not be present in one version of the logo, that doesn't preclude them from being present in another).
