February | The Sixth Doctor | The Doctor in his latest colourful regeneration looks confidently to his future — and his past — lying as it does amongst the stars and mysteries of the universe. |

March | The Tardis in the Matrix | The Doctor's Tardis (his constant companion and method of time travel) hovers amidst the Matrix wherein lies the complete knowledge and power of Gallifrey accessible only to the President. |

April | Davros | Obsessed with a desire to genetically engineer his creation, the Daleks, to a state of utter perfection, Davros sits poised to unleash yet further evil upon an unsuspecting populace. He, the arch scientist of Skaro, must survive, must succeed...! |

May | The Dark Tower of Gallifrey | The Dark Tower wherein lies the tomb of Rassilon. First of the Time Lords, rises ominously from the Death Zone, cast into near silhouette by the Callifreyan sunset. It provides the location for the gripping end of The Five Doctors saga. |

October | The Fourth Doctor | With his eccentric flamboyance and an infectious grin that would warm the very heart of the coldest galaxy, he is probably the best remembered regeneration of the Doctor. His concern with the most trivial of items at a moment of extreme danger can best be recalled by the mention of a single obscure terrestial [sic] sweet — jelly babies! |

November | The Giant Robot | The first challenge to face the fourth Doctor was a hapless robotic invention misused by its maker. Distorted in size and mind it went out of control bent on destruction and had to be destroyed by the reluctant Doctor. |

December | Dalek Destruction | A Dalek, hideous in its final moments, is torn apart in a blistering burst of flame. A single entity of this cruel race faced by the Doctor in all his regenerations has met its match. This particular scarf has made the Dalek too warm — dangerously warm... |
