Why you should allow me to purchase Doctor Who DVD Files

through your account with my own money

I had typed this composition to persuade you to allow me to use my OWN money (using
your account) to buy a couple (hopefully more) of issues of Doctor Who DVD Files, whilst
using grammar, and improving my English skills.

The first part of my argument describes the fantastic magazine itself. It comprises of
different, unique features in each issue: ‘The Doctor,’ ‘Allies,’ ‘Enemies,’ ‘Behind the Scenes,’
‘Technology,’ ‘Flashback,’ ‘DVD Episode Guide,’ ‘Who on Earth,’ and ‘Alien Worlds.’

In ‘The Doctor’ section, this references the lonely traveller who had lost so much when his
people were mercilessly executed by mutants. I am referring to the Doctor, the person this
section is dedicated to. Each part talks about his adventures, from stopping yetis hiding
underground, his childhood, exiled and forced to stay with a military organisation in the
1970’s, and even going on trial by his own people.

The next part of the magazine, ‘Allies,’ references the people the Doctor has met, and
stayed by his side when events were against them, such as two school teachers from a
public school, a fearless man who can never die, a woman dealing with a mysterious crack
wherever she goes, and even a person who was in love with the Doctor, until the despicable
creature of a person who created the mutants, whom killed the Doctor’s family, appeared...

The ‘Enemies,’ division focuses on the people and creatures the Doctor had the unfortunate
to meet, such as walking blobs of fat, a crazy guy who lost his body, surviving just because
he kept thinking about cold-hearted revenge, angel statues which cause several continuity
problems, literally massive maggots, and even window shop dummies coming to life. The
‘Enemies’ section particular has detailed information on humans who sacrificed their own
humanity to achieve immortality...

The ‘Behind the Scenes’ section explains Doctor who from a production point of view,
vividly describing computer generated images, script writing, and even interviews with the
actors themselves! Reading this section not only helps me to understand how Doctor Who is
brought from a few scribbled notes to something worth showing on television.

The ‘Technology’ part of the magazine focuses on the gadgets used in Doctor Who, such as a
spaceship with a pig as a pilot, a device which uses sonic waves to unlock doors, angelic
looking robots which threw their halos to kill and the strongest prison ever created. The
prison is so strong it will not let you escape by dying; it forces you to stay alive. There is a
part which talks about a spaceship which can dig out a sun core, assuming the sun isn’t alive
and wants to kill all of the crew members in revenge...

In ‘Flashback,’ this page (all of the sections described cover one page of the magazine)
appeals to the Doctor Who fan who had already watched the episode. The aim of this
section is to get the eager reader to remember what happened in the story, through the use
of images, a transcript, pictures, accurate , imaginative artwork and five facts the bookworm
may or may not have known already, which sometimes uses new words. Therefore, this
would improve my vocabulary, and be used in several things such as English GCSE controlled
assessments, or typing boring compositions.

I am afraid to have to interrupt having to passionately talk about the magazine, as the next
section would be meaningless without this paragraph. Each magazine comes with a DVD
(hence the creative title Doctor Who DVD Files). From issues 1 to 28, each DVD comes with
two episodes of Doctor Who post-2005, with the likes of Christopher Eccleston, or the more
well known David Tennant, who sadly, doesn’t want to be associated with a guy to travels in
a time machine. Later, the DVDs contain one story from Doctor broadcasted between 1962
to 1989. Before you start complaining this is a blatant rip-off, older Doctor Who stories
weren’t in covenant 45 minute single episodes. Back in the good old days, an episode was
25 minutes long, and a story would typically have between 2 to 14 episodes, but the
majority had 4. By using mental maths, the classic DVDs from Doctor Who DVD Files would
have 100 minutes of Doctor Who goodness, compared to post-2005 Doctor Who of 90
minutes.

The magazine caters for this. If you were a Doctor Who fan, you have just watched an
episode with a brilliant, inventive plot, and want to find out more, the ‘DVD Episode Guide’
talks about the freshly watched episode, as well as five facts you might not have noticed
because you were too busy enjoying yourself. There are questions, but these are for a bit of
fun, or to irritate encourage mums to watch Doctor Who, in time for Mother’s Day...

From issue 51 onwards, two additional sections are present, which is better value for your
my money, ‘Who on Earth’ and ‘Alien Worlds.’ The former gives the fictional history of the
Doctor’s history on Earth, from the relatively primitive Stone Age, the rise and fall of the
Roman Empire, the danger of the French Revolution, how the Allied Forces in World War
Two used the trigger-happy mutants to ‘win’ the war, and even to when the Sun engulfs the
Earth, leaving it a charred, cooked shadow of its former self...

The latter explains the alien worlds the Doctor and his trustworthy companions have
ventured on, such as the planet with poison for an atmosphere, the place where objects can
be created through maths alone (useful for Maths GCSE), Mars, and somewhere called
‘Ravalox,’ which for some reason looks like Earth. Exactly like Earth...

By now you would have come to the reason why I would like you to use my own money to
buy a few issues through your account. Unlike Precious Rocks Gems and Minerals (the
magazine with free rocks), Doctor Who is something I have watched and loved since a young
age. Secondly, the DVDs are of practical use; they can be watched as many times as I please,
compared to some rocks... which the only use would be to chop them up. Thirdly, I would,
no, that’s not correct, I shall improve my vocabulary by reading this magazine. If I do
manage to convince you, I don’t intend to spend all of my money in one go, like I have done
for the past couple of years, by saving for some money on lingerie from Ann Summers
treating you and Dad to a hearty meal in Mayflower. Also, I promise not to spend my time
too obsessed once I have the sentimental magazine with a DVD with each issue. I know my
GCSEs are important, but sometimes, a little break to watch/read a bit of Doctor Who won’t
harm me in any way.
