Companion Trifecta Announced for Fan Expo

Canadian Doctor Who fans are in for a treat this summer as Fan Expo Canada has just revealed that the three most popular new series companions are ALL going to be at the event taking place in Toronto from September 3-6. Billie Piper, Karen Gillan and Jenna Coleman were just announced as featured guests. Now that they have the most popular recent companions locked up, will they get a Doctor? They have had some over the years including Matt Smith and Colin Baker. Stay tuned to TIMD for more Fan Expo Doctor Who details as they are announced!

 

TIMD’s Dan Collins On Who Wars Podcast

Recently at the Toronto Comicon I had the chance to meet the Doctor Who Dark Journey guys in person for the first time. It was a real treat to finally shake hands with Andrew “the Cool Beans Doctor” Chalmers and Mike Tamburro after spending so much time interviewing them and speaking to them about Dark Journey online. Things were going very smoothly until Mike decided to turn the tables on me. Now instead of being the interviewer I became the interviewee as he did an off the cuff interview for Who Wars, a podcast that they contribute to!  Give it a listen! I look forward to seeing Andrew and Mike at the next convention!

Cool Beans Doctor At Comicon

There is a companion who is going to be at the Toronto Comicon this coming weekend, but now there’s a Doctor as well. Karen Gillan will be attending the show, known of course for her role as Amy Pond. Joining her (though I am sure a wall of security will keep them from ever meeting) are the guys from Doctor Who Dark Journey including Andrew Chalmers, the Cool Beans Doctor!

If you are in the Toronto area this weekend, check out the show! AM Audio Media (www.amaudiomedia.com) will be at Toronto Comic Con at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre March 20, 21, 22 – Booth A182. Join the award winning cast and crew, chat about the series with them. Not only can you meet the guys and gals, but you can also listen to a preview of the upcoming Series 2, be amonst the first to purchase the first pressing of Dark Journey on CD, and help support them by spending all your comic money on their swag, including Doctor Who and Dark Journey buttons!

 

And if you are real lucky you might see me there. I will be in attending on Sunday and will be hanging out with the guys for a while!

See the Doctor In Hamilton

As the convention season draws to a close for another year, you still have one last chance to see a Doctor.

So if you are in the Toronto area, why not head down and say hello to the Cool Beans Doctor!
