STUART FELL CONFIRMED FOR DOCTOR WHO DAY 3
Doctor Who stuntman and actor Stuart Fell has now confirmed his appearance at the
Doctor Who Day 3 event on the 10th March. Stuart will be making his first convention
appearance for over ten years and the DWACC is thrilled to have him along to entertain
people with his juggling and jesting (he now works as Taro The Jester).

See the DWACC events website for full details.

+++++

The DWACC @ 5 event on the 8th October was a great success, with Lisa Bowerman
and Steve Gallagher proving to be great guests, as well as really nice people.

DWACC 5th BIRTHDAY EVENT, SUNDAY 8th October
Several people have asked for details on how to find Darwen Cricket Club for the DWACC @ 5
birthday event this Sunday so I have looked it up on multimap.com. Just click on the link below.

The club is on Mostyn Street, right at the very end as far as you can go. It is about a quarter of a
mile south of the M65 Darwen junction.

DOCTOR WHO DAY 3 - NOW ON!!!
The club's third Doctor Who day is now definitely on! It will be held on Saturday,
10th March 2007, at Darwen Cricket Club, Darwen Lancashire.

Current confirmed guests are Lisa Bowerman and Dee Sadler. More guests to be
announced soon, along with ticket prices and other information.

LISA BOWERMAN BECOMES CLUB PATRON!
Sadly, due to work commitments, Dee Sadler has had to step down as club patron,
but it is with great pleasure that I can announce that Lisa Bowerman has agreed to become
the new patron. Lisa, of course, played Karra in the final Seventh Doctor adventure Survival in
1989, and plays Bernice Summerfield in the Big Finish audio dramas. She will officially replace
Dee at the DWACC @ 5 birthday event on the 8th October at Darwen Cricket Club.


9.9.2006 update ...
Sorry about the lack of updates on the site - I have been without internet access for five
weeks. Very frustrating! The charity auction was another success and £365 was raised
for Asthma UK. It is hoped that a cheque will be presented to a representative of the charity
at the special DWACC 5th birthday bash which is still all set for the 8th October.

DWACC 5TH BIRTHDAY
Darwen Cricket Club (in Lancashire) has now been booked for the DWACC 5th birthday bash - 
or DWACC @ 5 as it is now known! - for Sunday, 8th October, 1.00-5.00pm.
Confirmed guests (subject to other commitments as usual) are DWACC patron Dee Sadler
and Steve Gallagher, writer of Warriors' Gate and Terminus. The guest interviewer will be BBC
Doctor Who author Mark Morris (The Bodysnatchers/Deep Blue).

The event is open to CLUB MEMBERS ONLY and will cost just £5.00, which includes a potato pie
supper (in the afternoon!). If you would like to come along but are not a member you will need to join first
(click here for joining details).

DWACC 5TH BIRTHDAY PLANS
The DWACC will be five years old in October. Amazing, but true! Plans are underway
to hold a get together of club members to celebrate the event. It will be a good chance to meet
other members, have a chat with them, swap stories and autographs, and generally have a good
afternoon. It is hoped there will be a couple of guests there too, although the event won't be a convention.
DWACC Patron, Dee Sadler (Flowerchild in The Greatest Show in the Galaxy), has agreed to
attend and thinks it's a "fab idea"!

More details soon of the venue and date and how much it will cost (hopefully no more than a
fiver for club members).


7.5.2006 update ...
CHARITY AUCTION
The 2006 charity auction will be held during the first two weeks in July.
All money raised will once again go to Asthma UK.

DWACC CONVENTION CANCELLED

Apologies to everyone who were looking forward to the DWACC con.
