Comments

David Bishop's interview with Andrew Cartmel was a major first for TSV. No other publication had published the McCoy era script editor's views on his time on the show. TSV were fortunate in that David knew Cartmel professionally and therefore was able to arrange the interview. Tim Hill produced a huge amount of artwork at short notice to illustrate the piece, one of which we used on the front cover. Some readers felt that the interview should have been serialised over two or three issues, as it occupied 26 pages. The reason for printing it complete in one issue was due to a concern that once the first part had been printed, other publications might approach Cartmel and get the jump on TSV for the remainder of the interview. As it turned out, DWM expressed an interest, and bought the rights to the interview from David Bishop, publishing it issues 224 to 226. From this issue onwards, TSV's printers scanned colour images for the issue and produced high definition black and white images of the book and video covers.
