TimeGate is an annual science fiction / fantasy covention that focuses on Doctor Who and Stargate, though all interests are represented. So if you're into Stargate SG-1, Doctor Who, Stargate Atlantis, Torchwood or the Sarah Jane Chronicles—or you're excited about the upcoming show Stargate Universe—this is the con for you! But if not, we'll also have Star Trek, Battlestar, Heroes, literary, horror and comics programming too, along with many other topics.

We were unable to have an official convention shirt on site this year, but you can pick one up in our Store! A new design available via CafePress on shirts, mugs, journals, clocks, you name it! Purchase of items from the store helps us raise money for Guest travel.

July 22, 2009: I got an email from Mary Tamm today, letting me know that her biography is now done and a publication date is set! The book, entitled First Generation, will be released on September 14. It will be available in both paperback and a limited edition hardcover (which will be numbered, autographed, and will include an extra photo section) from the book division of Fantom Films. Here's the gorgeous cover art and the back cover text:

Familiar to Doctor Who fans as Time Lady Romana - this is the story of actress Mary Tamm.

Raised by Estonian parents in 1950’s Bradford, Mary has had a successful acting career in stage, television and film. Mostly notably in The Donati Conspiracy, with the late and great Richard Beckinsale, her first feature film, Tales that Witness Madness, with Kim Novak, a cult classic, and The Odessa File, with Jon Voight, which pitched her career into the international arena.
