Adric Lives!!!
Actor Matthew Waterhouse, who played Adric in the original tv series, makes his Canadian convention debut this summer, as he is a guest of Toronto Trek, the annual sci-fi convention.
Toronto Trek will be held on July 15-17 at the Doubletree International
Plaza Hotel, Toronto Airport. Cost is $55cdn ($47US) for the weekend by
pre-registration (deadline: May 31st), $65 at the door. Other guests include Barry “Victor” Morse of Space: 1999 fame, Katie “Starbuck” Sackhoff from the new Battlestar Galactica, Rene Auberjonois (Odo from Star Trek Deep Space Nine, or as I’ve always known him, Clayton Endicott III from Benson) and other guests from Buffy, Stargate and Earth Final Conflict.
Plus 7 author guests and over 200 hours of other events and activities.

Ardic’s escape pod lands in Toronto? Cool.

Yes, and he’s still clutching that darn belt of his.
I wonder if we should break the news of his broken badge when he gets here….

I remember seeing Matthew Waterhouse in Boston during the 1980s, when Who fandom was strong enough to enable the DW guest to outdraw the Star Trek actor appearing at the same show. He was very nice. Enjoy your convention… Hmmm, I wouldn’t mind seeing Katee Sackhoff (sp?), actually…

Is anyone from DWIN planning an interview with Mr. Waterhouse? At Gallifrey 2004, Clayton Hickman said he was pursuing an interview with Waterhouse for Doctor Who Magazine, but this apparently came to nothing. Now that DWM seems to have passed out of its “tell-all” phase to become more of a mainstream (though still above average) fan mag, it would be a real coup for Enlightenment to get this interview - and a rare chance for Waterhouse to get his side of things on record.

Never fear Curt, we’ll be interviewing Matthew at TT and putting it in an issue of Enlightement later in the fall!
