Doctor Who Annual 1982
Format: Hardback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Text Stories: Inter-Galactic Cat, Conundrum, Planet of Paradise, Just a Small Problem..., The Key of Vaga, Planet of Fear
Comic Strip: Plague World
Notes: The year 1982 is not displayed anywhere on the book. The annual is unusual in that it features both the Fourth and Fifth Doctors. Davison's Doctor appears in the stories The Key of Vaga and Planet of Fear, though as the Fifth Doctor's television debut occurred after this annual was published, artist Glenn Rix had to illustrate these stories based on reference stills of Peter Davison from All Creatures Great and Small, avoiding depicting any more than just his head, since the new Doctor's costume had not yet been revealed. The companion for both the Fourth and Fifth Doctors was Adric, and K9 appeared in all of the Fourth Doctor's stories. Only in his last story, Just a Small Problem... was the Fourth Doctor depicted wearing his Season 18 costume. Rix lacked photographic reference material of Adric, and had to work from a video recording of one of his episodes. The comic strip story Plague World was illustrated by Mel Powell. This was the first annual to use the neon logo. The logo was used on all subsequent annuals with the same colours: red lettering on a yellow background. A quarter of the book was once again taken up with puzzles and features, but one of those features, Secrets of the TARDIS, was about Doctor Who, which had previously been published in The Amazing World of Doctor Who (1976). The annual was edited by Brenda Apsley. Around 44,500 copies were sold.
