I was able to get to the Whovian Tour in Philadelphia,
where they showed 'An Unearthly Child', 'Death to the Daleks',
and 'The King's Demons', all of which I enjoyed.  Plus, they
showed the pilot for 'K-9 and Company', which is unfortunately
not going to be made into a series.  The premise is that the
Doctor leaves K-9 Mark 3 in the attic of Sarah Jane Smith's
house in Croyden, and she and K-9 and a cousin(?) of hers,
who happens to be a computer whiz, go off on all sorts of
adventures.  If you're used to 'screaming Sarah', you'll find
she's changed for the better.

Jon Pertwee (3rd Doctor) and Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith)
were the guest stars, and both of them are really marvelous
speakers and very interesting people.  

There were lots of things sold, all very expensive (T-shirts for
$10.00, scarves for $60.00 and up), but the admission price of
$10.00 was well worth it.  If this tour comes to your area,
GO!!
