#MeToo and the women of Doctor Who, Gallifrey One con recap, and news
“Gallifrey Waits No More”
Hosts Chip Sudderth and Alyssa Franke
Women’s voices rang powerfully and true at the end of the 29th Gallifrey One convention. Alyssa looks back on a profound #MeToo moment as Doctor Who actors, writers and other creators talked about their struggles within the entertainment industry. We take some time to honor their testimony while also celebrating the other highlights of a very successful con weekend. There was also a lot of news from the comics, visual effects, and Riverdale (???) fronts!
