Sucky news sucks.

From the DWF as stated by the Gallifrey One organizer.

No Doctors this year, sorry... there are only four that do conventions, and we've had all of them in the past 5 years (just had Colin and Sylv in the past two). Probably for 2010...

We will still likely be announcing one or two additional DW/Torchwood related guests, as well as some other locals. We're actually shying away from the local signing actors this year (barring a small handful) because we've done that, and they appear at every autograph convention; instead, we're focusing more on local creative talent like writers and illustrators. Unfortunately, we're also running out of room with all the programming we're doing, so there won't be that many more...

That makes me very, very, very, very sad. But there you go.

I don't!

It was just a suggestion since he'll be free to attend cons by then, and unlike CE, he's fanboy enough to do them.

I was just kidding because I hate Tennant. His being there would make me not go. But you're right, I honestly can not imagine CE ever attending a con which is SO SAD! But he is just not that guy. I'm still holding out hope that Peter will attend either CT or GO next year. He and Sarah Sutton together at a con would be SO SO SO SO AWESOME. Oh, the bitchiness. ;-)

Hating David seems a bit harsh. o_O

Maybe you'll get lucky and Peter and Sarah will do a con together one day.

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

Eh, he annoys me. But his fans are ALWAYS welcome here. ;-)

Peter and Sarah would be dreeeeamy. Meanwhile, my question on the DWF has gotten the guy who runs the Who-cruise sending me emails now. Apparently Frazer is a confirmed guest next year. But who has that kind of time and money?!

I couldn't even get to the DW Con in Cardiff last month, never mind an OS one. :(

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

Right?! That dude (I'm pretty sure it was the same guy) spoke at the closing ceremonies of CT and the whole thing sounds amazing. But it's like a couple of thousand dollars, I think. If I had that kind of money to spend on travel there are a million other places I would go before a floating con.

word on the street (and by that, i mean the hotel lobby at chiTARDIS) is that eccleston actually *is* considering doing cons -- but is going the mcgann route (i.e. waiting until the money is right, and will probably only do them sporadically, unlike other doctors). SOMEDAY PERHAPS YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TOUCH HIM.

i doubt that tennant will be doing cons by the time of next year's gallifrey (i don't even think all of the specials will have aired by then!), so you're probably safe from his sexy weaselness for the time being. meanwhile, i heard some things about 2010 which make me think i'll need to save up some funds and make my way to california.

SOMEDAY PERHAPS YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TOUCH HIM.

LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIES!!! You say these things and build up my dreams just so you can watch them crumble into dust. YOU ARE EVIL!

so you're probably safe from his sexy weaselness for the time being.

Ok, well maybe not completely evil.

[prof-pangaea.livejournal.com]

it's not lies! but i doubt it'll happen for a few more years, anyway. OMG IMAGINE IF HE WAS IN FRONT OF US, LOOKING AT US WITH HIS SEXY EYES.

and don't worry, if we are at a con together and david tennant is there, i will be a heroic gentleman and tackle him to the ground JUST FOR YOU.

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

OMG IMAGINE IF HE WAS IN FRONT OF US, LOOKING AT US WITH HIS SEXY EYES.

I DARE NOT IMAGINE THAT WHILE I'M AT WORK. IT'S DEFINITELY A NSFW FANTASY.

i will be a heroic gentleman and tackle him to the ground JUST FOR YOU.

Awwwww. I ♥ U.

OMG NINE AT CON OMG OMG REALLY?!

Okay, so 2011? 'Cause I'm thinking David would be fucking hilariously awesome at a con.

[prof-pangaea.livejournal.com]

frankly, if i was DT i would wait a few years before i went to a con, just because i would FEAR FOR MY LIFE. he gets mobbed and followed around enough as it is. maybe after a few years with a hotter another doctor things will have toned down a bit.

that said, i look soooooo forward to it, whenever it does happen, because he is such a fanboy, and i would love to hear him debate canon minutiae on a panel like i saw nick briggs, rob shearman, and paul cornell do at chiTARDIS. most of the actors are lovely, but they aren't necessarily fans -- which is arguably good, for their acting, but i like cons because i get to hang out with fans and talk about ridiculous fan stuff. woot!
