Our next Doctor Who event is 'Time 5' on 29th october at Riverside Studios.

Gareth David Lloyd (Ianto Jones from Doctor Who and Torchwood) has agreed to attend. For a full guest list (so far) please click the link opposite

John Howe has sent the following email, and I think it very much sums up the general feeling within not only the Society, but also Fandom at large.

"Congratulations to Colin Baker on being named the new Honorary President of DWAS!

Colin has happily agreed that footage of his surprise appearance on Sunday can go on You Tube. The quality is not great (it was taken from the very back of the auditorium on a not particularly modern Canon Ixus), and the light tones of his jacket cause some flare, but the sound is good and it shows just what a great response he received on Sunday.

I really enjoyed that, dark and disturbing in a very good way and it seems you agree...

Following on from the poll which garnered your views, it was with great pleasure that Colin Baker accepted the post of Honorary President of the Society at the "Day of the Daleks" event yesterday afternoon. Colin received more votes than all the other candidates combined!

So it's back, though it doesn't really feel likes its been away!

On first viewing I'm not sold on this episode, some elements I like but more I didnt to be honest.

Here though is what you have been saying:

Well, they didn't. But then I never thought they would...

Torchwwod - Miracle Day (part 4) is just hours away as I write this. To be honest I have been watching each episode on edge a bit, not because it had me on the edge of my seat as such, but because I could not until now dare to believe that it would follow in the footsteps of 'Children of Earth'. I say this because, to be honest, I am no fan of the first two series of Torchwood.
