DWMSE 26
DWMSE 26 — cover titled The Doctor Who Companion Series Five Volume Two — was the first issue of Doctor Who Magazine Special Edition which covered the Steven Moffat production era, and therefore the first to bear the Moffat-era logo and a revamped interior layout redesign.
It was the first of two issues dedicated to series 5, covering the episodes from The Eleventh Hour to The Vampires of Venice.

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 first six 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 The Eleventh Hour, The Beast Below, Victory of the Daleks, The Time of Angels / Flesh and Stone and The Vampires of Venice, as well as the specially-made 3D cinema trailer.
This is your essential guide to worlds of Doctor Who.
