2010 was a landmark year for Doctor Who. Matt Smith and Karen Gillan appeared on television as the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond for the first time, in a series of incredible adventures. From the Doctor's crash landing in sleepy Leadworth, through to his arrival at Amy's wedding in a rebooted universe, the last of the Time Lords faced many monsters during the course of his travels, including Weeping Angels, Silurians, Autons, Cybermen, Smilers, Venetian Vampires, Prisoner Zero ... and of course, the Daleks!
Now, Doctor Who Magazine takes you behind the scenes of the Eleventh Doctor's last seven episodes with an in-depth episode guide — including original storylines, deleted scenes, media appearances, ratings information and thousands of facts about the day-to-day life of the making of Doctor Who — all illustrated with gorgeous, never-before-seen photographs. This collector's edition examines Amy's Choice, The Hungry Earth / Cold Blood, Vincent and the Doctor, The Lodger and The Pandorica Opens / The Big Bang, as well as the specially-made Meanwhile in the TARDIS scenes from the DVD box set.
