Welcome Peter Davison to CONsole Room 2017!

We are THRILLED to announce that Fifth Doctor Peter Davison will be joining us as a Guest of Honour at CONsole Room 2017!

Best known for his roles in All Creatures Great and Small and Doctor Who, Davison was introduced to the Doctor Who universe in 1981 at age 29, the youngest actor at the time to have played the lead role. Davison continued his role as the fifth reincarnation of The Doctor for three years, leaving the set in 1984 after encountering beloved monsters from Daleks to Cybermen and beyond. He later returned to this role in on a number of special occasions, including the 1993 charity special Dimensions in Time and the 2007 minisode Time Crash.

In honor of Mr. Davison’s addition to our Guest list, you can take $5 off of registration with promo code WELCOMEFIVE through January 1!

#WhoItYourself – Inspired by Doctor Who

During the years that Doctor Who was off our television screens, the fans turned toward their own creativity. That creativity has only grown since our show came back on. You’ve written stories, made videos, drawn comics, sewn costumes, built props, recorded podcasts, and so much more.

Starting with CONsole Room 2017, we wanted to celebrate that creativity with the campaign that called #WhoItYourself! During the months between conventions, we’ll be spotlighting the creative works of Doctor Who fans on our website and via social media, and combining forces with the Geek Partnership Society to host some masquerade workshops and other hands-on creative events. And we want you to bring all of your creations to the next CONsole Room to share your hard work with fellow fans!

So watch our Facebook page, and follow us on Twitter and Pinterest, where we’ll be posting a new prompt occasionally to help inspire you in your #WhoItYourself creativity. Whether your muse is Vincent Van Gogh, Leonardo da Vinci, Charles Dickens, or Shakespeare, we want to you share your comics, costume, fan fiction, or anything else you’ve created. Tag CONsole Room on social media, along with #WhoItYourself, or email us directly with your creative work based on our weekly prompt. We’ll be spotlighting a creator each week that embodies our theme, so watch for us to announce our first theme next week!
