This Week in Doctor Who
Week 17: 25 Apr - 1 May 2020 - USA
Saturday 25 April
   |  | 10:00am BST The Capitol - CONtact has been made (Related) | We're delighted to announce “The Capitol CONtact has been made”, a virtual event that will launch at 10.00am BST on Saturday 25th April. We have specifically chosen this time and date as it’s when “The Capitol FIVE” was originally scheduled to get underway.“ CONtact has been made” will be available at our You Tube Channel DWASonline, and features panels from the first four Capitols in their entirety. We are very grateful to our wonderful guests for giving us permission to make them available in these troublesome times as we continue to battle against the invisible enemy. Panels will include Steven Berkoff talking about Shakespeare, Sylvester Stallone & Hitler, and Jon Culshaw trading blows with Terrance Dicks in a unique double header. The Society will be making donations to chosen charities that will benefit from “CONtact has been made” and the opportunity will be offered for viewers to do so as well. This will, of course, be entirely voluntary as we are only too well aware that for many money is tight to mention. |
| |  | 2:00pm BST Time Space Visualiser IV (Related) | We have had a week on holiday, but we’re back with a bang this Saturday with The Doctor himself! We are back this Saturday with our fourth online convention, bringing you a hectic mixture of brand new interviews, special features, competitions, and archive material, broadcasting live and direct on YouTube… all completely for FREE. This week we are honoured to have our first Doctor joining us; the seventh Doctor SYLVESTER McCOY is taking part in a specially recorded interview for the event. Of course any Doctor needs his loyal companions, and we have three of his fabulous friends. KATY MANNING (Jo Grant/Jones), JOHN LEESON (K9) and DAN STARKEY (Strax) will also be joining in the fun. And if that wasn’t enough, we have brand new interviews with a trio of wonderful guest stars. GRAHAM COLE is best known to Doctor Who fans as The Melkur, but is probably more familiar as PC Tony Stamp in The Bill. JESSICA MARTIN was Mags (and also the voice of the Queen) and also read one of our new stories recently. And finally, JASON WATKINS, one of the most recognisable faces on television right now, who was also a guest star in NIGHTMARE IN SILVER. If you wish to join in, we are asking this week “Who is your favourite Doctor?” Simply record a short 30 second and sent your clip to tsv@fantomfilms.co.uk no later than Thursday. It was followed by a tweetalong to The Five Doctors. |
