Event: Signing at Forbidden Planet

Meet Doctor Who stars next weekend at London's Forbidden Planet.

Forbidden Planet is pleased to announce a signing by Peter Davison, Louise Jameson and Nicholas Briggs. They will be signing the Big Finish CD audio drama of The Bride Of Peladon at the Forbidden Planet Megastore, 179 Shaftesbury Avenue, London, WC2H 8JR, on Saturday 2nd February 12-1pm

Peter Davison was the Fifth Doctor (1981– 84). He was fresh faced and very young. He was 29 at the time and still remains the youngest ever Doctor to travel in the TARDIS. Peter last put the cricket jumper and celery on for 2007’s Children In Need special along with the Tenth Doctor David Tennant. Currently in the West End production of Spamalot he also acts as the Doctor in various audio dramas for Big Finish Productions.

Louise Jameson played Leela, Warrior of Sevateem and Tom Baker’s companion. Although she wasn’t in the show for very long she is fondly remembered as the leather-clad fighter. Louise also acts in the Big Finish Gallifrey and Doctor Who audio dramas.

Nicholas Briggs is a writer, actor and director who provides the voices of the Daleks and Cybermen in the new series of Doctor Who. He’ll be bringing his Dalek voice machine along to the signing. Now everyone can have a go at sounding like a Dalek! Nicholas is also the Executive Producer of the Big Finish Doctor Who range.

The Bride Of Peladon - A mysterious voice, a missing girl and a murdered queen. The Royal House of Peladon is once more plunged into intrigue, terror and death. The Doctor, Peri and Erimem must find their way through a treacherous labyrinth of lies if they’re to distinguish friend from foe before it’s too late.

Peter, Louise and Nicholas will be signing at the Forbidden Planet London Megastore. The largest store of its kind in the world, it continues the Forbidden Planet tradition of hosting appearances by the greatest names in science fiction and fantasy. Previous guests have Christopher Lee, Andy Serkis, Iain Banks, Douglas Adams, Anne McCaffrey, Clive Barker, Stephen King, William Gibson and H. R. Giger.
