Hosted on the front cover by Doctor Who (John
Pertwee), Countdown arrived on our shelves dated 20th February 1971.
With the free gift of a "Giant Spacefact Wall Chart with Stamps" and
posing the question, 'Do Flying Saucers Exist?', Countdown introduced
an array of television stars, in comic format, including Doctor Who in
Gemini Plan, Dastardly And Muttley, UFO, Thunderbirds, and Captain
Scarlet.
