Doctor Who: Battles in Time was a fortnightly magazine that accompanied a trading card game, both of which were published by GE Fabbri Ltd. The magazine had a six-issue trial run in certain regions of the United Kingdom before re-launching, with some modifications, in September 2006. It ran for seventy issues until 2009, and therefore was entirely a phenomenon of the David Tennant era on television,

Each £2.50 issue came with at least one pack of collectable trading cards, which were available to buy separately at the cost of £1.50.

Each issue included the following regular features:

  • Gameplay - How to use the cards to play with your friends!
  • Card Clash - Two cards selected and matched to battle it out!
  • Monster Foldout - Fold out guide to tie-in with the cover image.
  • Episode Guide - FAQ summary from TV: Rose onwards.
  • Comic Strip - all new Tenth Doctor Comic Strip.
  • Behind the scenes - alternating feature looking at the making of the TV series.
  • Dalek Wars - alternating feature, a CGI depiction of great Dalek battles with a search and find activity.
  • Brain Busters - puzzles

Special issues Edit

In addition to the regular issues there were a further four special issues.

The first special, Daleks vs Cybermen, was a self contained special issue, whereas its three successors were launched at the same time as expansion sets to the collectable trading card releases.
