The 194th regular issue of SFX, a UK magazine dedicated to covering the sci-fi and fantasy genre, was devoted to Doctor Who.

To mark the return of Doctor Who to television, with a new Eleventh Doctor for series 5, SFX commissioned a special 3D cover that was only available in the UK and certain selected US outlets. The cover image is an interlaced lenticular image, giving the impression of depth and movement as the magazine is tilted.

Inside the main feature was a 9 page article;

  • "The First Eleven"
"Back for its first full series in two years, Doctor Who is returning with two new leads and a new head writer. Nick Setchfield talks to Moffat, Smith and Gillan, the people who'll make your Saturday nights."
With portraits by Adrian Rogers for SFX
The article also included a section looking at the unique design of this cover.
