Additional details

 * Additional Input from DWM 167: Archives Feature: Dave Who? Tom Pertwee? What can we say? Erm, it was a deliberate mistake which has caused us infinite embarrassment and made nearly every reader point it out ... the Auton voice credit of Haydn Jones is correct, despite contradicting a reference to Haydn Wood on Page 13. Wood appears in Planet of Evil. Also in Those Radio Times: the listings for tv was for BBC Television (it wasn't BBC1 until BBC2 existed). Marco Polo did not appear in a colour cover — only a colour banner graced this issue.
 * Additional Input from DWM 171: You on Who The photograph of Elisabeth Sladen was taken by Carl Powell.
