Reviews

Lisa Gallifrey1. Doctor Who convention. Smaller attendance to reduce crowding. Jo Martin (Fugitive Doctor) Mandip Gil (Yaz) were there. Fun con. Took COVID tests before and after, and they were negative. If protocols are followed, things seem to be safe.

Yochanan = Went (for less than an hour) Art Sale show (billed as a fannish event) Prints and Oils by Christopher Clarke who was there. Cosplay with pride was present. Worth full price (free!).
Lisa went on Sunday. Not oils, but print on canvas. Only Darth Vader was there on Sunday. Thought it would have been more an exhibit, not a sale.
LoR meeting: Eve of the Daleks and Evil of the Daleks. Great. Had wonderful time. Eve was a pretty good episode. Secondary characters were good, Evil was even better.

Gerald = Star Trek Original Series episode about an actor with a dark past. The Conscience of the King. Well done, deep for Star Trek and maybe one of Shatner's better acting jobs. Uhura sings, too!

Rumor of the Week: Dr. Who meets WWE: The Legion of Wrassling
