The Whoovers in association with QUAD Derby are delighted to bring the East Midlands favourite convention for fans of the BBC’s Doctor Who, back to QUAD for our seventeenth year.
Expect a day jam-packed with activities, including celebrity guest panels, autograph and photo sessions, models and cosplay, displays and traders, and much more. Above all it will be a chance to meet fellow fans in a relaxed and fun environment. It's sure to be a great day, as the previous 16 Whoovervilles have all been.
Guests announced so far:
Anita Dobson (Mrs Flood/The Rani);
Janet Fielding (Tegan);
Sophie Aldred (Ace);
David Banks (Cyber-Leader and Virgin New Adventures novelist);
Mark Hardy (Cyber Lieutenant);
Mark Ayres (Composer and Sound Engineer);
Jason Haigh-Ellery (Managing Director, Big Finish Productions);
Toby Hadoke (actor, writer, comedian, presenter);
Alex Moore (Doctor Who Locations Manager);
Paul Vanezis (TV producer/director, missing episodes and restoration expert).
Look out for further announcements over the coming weeks and months. Remember we book guests on the basis that all Official Whooverville guests will sign one free autograph per attendee, sponsored or bonus guests will be advertised as such and may charge.
We never announce guests until they have confirmed their attendance, but occasionally, due to urgent work or personal commitments or illness, guests have to drop out. When this happens we do all that we can to secure a replacement.
So don't hang about, Whooverville nearly always sells out and tickets are selling fast - please don't leave it until it’s too late to think about getting yours.
Tickets are priced as follows: Standard £60, Concession £50, Accompanied 12 and under £20 and are now on sale from https://www.derbyquad.co.uk/events/whooverville17/
