Ex-timelords make time for fans

Sylvester McCoy played Doctor Who from 1987 until 1989

A Doctor Who convention in Gloucester will be attended by ex-timelords Sylvester McCoy and Peter Davison.

Daleks and Cybermen will also be in attendance at the event at the Guildhall on Saturday.

An episode of Doctor Who - entitled Shiver and described as the most terrifying yet by Russell T Davies - will be shown on a large screen.

A host of other stars from the hit sci-fi show, plus Sycorax, Ood and K-9 are all expected.
