November 24th, 2012 - 10:40pmI went to this convention and, though expensive, it was fantastic. I went with family and coming from Leeds, it was quite a long journey. Then the hotel price on top for the weekend made the trip quite the expense but it was definitely worth it. The autograph my daughter got was good and she has it treasured along with them picture, with which Arthur was very nice. The conferences were interesting and my 12 year old daughter wanted to go to them all. We went to the Tardis tour as well and it was fun going around and playing with the console. My daughter had to miss out on a concert which she was looking forward to but she says she was glad she chose this option.

April 25th, 2012 - 7:54amIt wasn’t difficult to get a ticket if you had £99 and a computer with Internet access plus extra £20s for photographs and autographs.
There will be a purpose-built building to host the Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff Bay from this Summer2012. It’s supposed to be fab.
As for a convention…. Official or unofficial? Matt Smith is at the 11th hour in Birmingham later this year at an unofficial event. I’m sure there will be lots more. As for official, the BBC are yet to announce as the Ponds have left and fans have to start liking Jasmine.
It would be good to have a 50th anniversary do but it’s early days
