Doctor Who convention with Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred headlining, stage talks, video presentations, autographs and guests from the show.
Pandorica is coming to The Albany Theatre on Albany Road this weekend, running from Friday 30 October to Sunday 1 November. It's a Doctor Who convention put on by Fantom Events & Publishing, who've billed it as their biggest of the year. This edition marks sixty-three years of the show, with two days of stage entertainment and the chance to meet guests from both sides of the camera.
Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred headline, joined by Marek Anton, Carole Ann Ford, Peter Purves, Frazer Hines, Wendy Padbury, Katy Manning, and Daphne Ashbrook. The programme is built around stage talks, exclusive video presentations, evening entertainment, autographs, merchandise, and photo opportunities. It's a mix of on-stage panels and one-on-one time with the guests, and the lineup brings together names from across the show's long run.
Fantom Events describe it as their own accessible and individual style, and they've run it as a weekend rather than a single day. Past attendees have called it the highlight of the Who calendar, and it's drawn back the show's own cast and crew over the years, including Peter Purves. The Albany Theatre on Albany Road is the convention's new home this year, so it's a different spot from previous editions.
