Introduction of a Shetland Whovian

Thought I’d introduce myself on here and get properly verified on here.

My name is Aden, a fan originally from the Shetland Islands. Been a fan of the series for nearly 20 years. My earliest memory of the series was watching New Earth in 2006 with the Tenth Doctor and Rose. My overall favourite doctor is The Eighth Doctor. I really enjoy a lot of expanded media, especially Big Finish. Recently I’ve been trying to read more and been slowly reading through the EDA range, currently on Kursaal as of writing this.
Me and some of my friends also host a podcast called Tales of the Whoniverse where we review stories from across the Whoniverse, discuss news and on the occasion do interviews. We’ve only done one so far with Conrad Westmaas who played C’rizz, companion of The Eighth Doctor. I’ve linked the channel down below if anyone decides to check it out.
What else to talk about… Oh yes, have I got time to tell you about the time I was battling Davros on the pla- What? What do you mean no?

Welcome to the forum @ShetlandWhovian - great to have you here. Conrad Westmaas is a lovely man - met him at a couple of signings once and he remembered me years later an another event (where he was just there as a fan).

Thank you :blush:, yeah Conrad is an absolutely lovely guy. Met him in person at Spearhead Live 3 after the interview and he remembered me and my friends that went, had a good chat with him at the signing table and got my copy of Terror Firma signed by him as well as Paul and India. Honestly was one of the best days of my life.

He looks ever so slightly younger in my picture! (That’s Sarah Mowat next to us, from Dalek Empire).

And who’s that dashing young man in the middle? A previously unknown incarnation of the Doctor?

Welcome! Glad to have you on board. Always nice seeing somebody having Eight as their favorite as well, can’t escape the good ol McGann Brainrot, eh?
Either way, make sure to pop up in the Audio Club, if you want to, I think we just recently reached “Neverland” there.
