This will be Radio Free Skaro’s fourth year covering Gallifrey One, however this year will be extra special for us. As the official Gallifrey One podcast, we will be opening the convention in the main ballroom on Friday, February 17 at 12:00pm. Entitled Radio Free Skaro and The World of Tomorrow, we will bring you live, on-stage interviews with Camille Coduri, Barnaby Edwards, Toby Haynes, Simon-Fisher Becker, and Gary Russell; there will also be a special live version of Two-minute Time Lord with Chip Sudderth… but that’s not all!

As always, we will be bringing you daily podcasts for five days starting on Thursday, February 16. Featuring interviews with many of the convention guests, as well as conversations with friends and attendees alike, we hope to bring the full Gallifrey One experience to those who can’t attend themselves. And of course, those who are in attendance will be able to relive the wonderful time they had at Gally.

Gallifrey One, the massive and amazing annual fan-run Doctor Who convention, is rapidly approaching and we take some time to talk to Program Director Shaun Lyon about the recently-released convention schedule and to formally announce details of our live show – Radio Free Skaro And The World Of Tomorrow! As Gallifrey One’s official podcast, we’ll open the convention and will be joined on stage by actress Camille Coduri, director Toby Haynes, jack-of-all-trades Barnaby Edwards and jack-of-even-more-trades Gary Russell. The Three Who Rule also cast their gaze, commentary-wise, upon Tom MacRae’s amazing The Girl Who Waited to see if it stands the test of time. And of course there’s the news gnashing. One month to Gally!

Camille Coduri

Camille played Rose Tyler’s feisty, yet loyal, mother Jackie Tyler during Series 1 and 2 of the new series of Doctor Who, as well in return appearances in Journey’s End (2008) and The End of Time, Part Two (2010). Camille is making her first appearance at Gallifrey One this year.

Barnaby Edwards

A multi-talented writer, director, actor, and artist, Barnaby Edwards is perhaps best known as being the principal Dalek Operator in every Dalek episode of the revived series of Doctor Who. In addition to this, Barnaby has written, directed, and provided voices for Big Finish Doctor Who audio dramas. This will also be Barnaby’s first time at Gallifrey One.

Toby Haynes

For a stretch of time from June 2010 through April 2011, no Doctor Who episode aired on BBC One that wasn’t directed by Toby Haynes. At the helm for five consecutive episodes, Toby’s work on the Series 5 finale and the 2010 Christmas special received considerable acclaim, and he was the director for Doctor Who’s first major US location shoot for The Impossible Astronaut and Day of the Moon. Toby is another first-timer at Gallifrey One.
 

Simon Fisher-Becker

Simon Fisher-Becker played the larger than life Dorium Maldovar, black marketeer, friend to and unwilling recruit of The Doctor, in three episodes dating back to The Pandorica Opens in Series 5. Simon is making his first North American Doctor Who convention appearance.

Gary Russell

Gary Russell has been involved with Doctor Who for most of his adult life, including a four-year stint as editor of Doctor Who Magazine, producer of the Doctor Who range of audio dramas at Big Finish, and script editor on Doctor Who. Gary has also written numerous Doctor Who novels and non-fiction books, and has been a popular fixture at Gallifrey One for years.

Two-Minute Time Lord

Chip from Two-minute Time Lord, who served as technical director for Radio Free Skaro in 3-D at Gallifrey 22, will again be the man behind the scenes this year, but will also appear on-stage for a special Two-Minute Time Lord segment about the changing nature of Doctor Who over the past 48 years.

 

It all kicks off at 12:00pm on Friday, February 17 in the Main Programming Hall at Gallifrey One. Get there early!

The world of Doctor Who lost one of its icons this past week, and all fans are mourning the passing of our beloved Brigadier, Nicholas Courtney. The highs from Gallifrey came crashing down as the news of Courtney’s death hit earlier in the week, and it was only fitting that a Courtney tribute episode be recorded. We welcomed Doctor Who script editor, New Adventures author and Doctor Who Magazine editor, Big Finish producer and life-long Doctor Who fan Gary Russell on the show to reminisce about his experiences with the wonderful Mr. Courtney. Please join us as we remember Sir Alastair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, the man who portrayed him as well as cover the news of the week.
