There are Vampires, Silurians and life-changing choices to be made, in DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE 421!

DWM previews four fantastic forthcoming episodes of Doctor Who – THE VAMPIRES OF VENICE, AMY'S CHOICE, THE HUNGRY EARTH and COLD BLOOD – with exclusive interviews with writers Toby Whithouse, Simon Nye, Chris Chibnall and Steven Moffat, and never-before-seen photos!

Talking about the new-look reptile people of The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood, CHRIS CHIBNALL reveals, “These new creatures don’t negate the original Silurians, they’re a different exploration of the same idea. They’re close cousins. And once you see Neve McIntosh (who plays Siluians Alaya and Restac) and Matt Smith acting their socks off together, I’m hoping you’ll feel the idea paid off…”
