Doctor Who Season Twenty - on Target

Let's be honest, season twenty of Doctor Who was a bit of a mess at the time. Allegedly each story featured an element from the Doctor's past only after it was pointed out to the producer late into production causing much confusion for the eager fan. And these past elements were only bolstered by the fact that the Black Guardian featured in half of them... Although not as bland as the previous season, this one does at least have a bit of colour with the return of The Brigadier, a sequel to Kinda, sailing ships in space and a trip to Amsterdam. 'The Five Doctors' always gets bolted onto the end - mostly for convenience as it fills the gap left by a four-part story featuring the Daleks that was abandoned due to a strike. I have also made such a move... 

To attempt to be different, I thought it would be fun NOT to include any of the Doctors on the novelisation of the anniversary story. To be honest, there is so much in The Five Doctors worthy of the cover besides them, it would end up cluttered... as many fan pieces bear witness to. Keep it simple and to the point was the advice of my lecturer at university... It still looks a bit cluttered but it does at least solve the problem of putting a prominent Tom Baker in the design. 

Some of these covers are available as 'exploded' versions on RedBubble.
