Barry Letts' Autobiography has now been released. All the pre-orders have been posted out to customers.

Last Saturday, over 50 fans turned out at Sheffield's Galaxy Four to purchase a copy of the book and to meet Barry Letts' colleagues from the show, Katy Manning and Terrance Dicks.

We have sold out of the first print of the paperback edition and have only 50 copies of the limited edition hardbacks in stock. New copies of the paperback edition should arrive within the next ten days!

It was with the greatest of sadness on Friday that we learnt of the death of Barry Letts.

Fantom Films had had the pleasure of working with Barry a few months ago at our ‘Who & Them’ event  at the Cockpit Theatre, celebrating his era of Doctor Who. This in turn led to us to working closer with him on the publication of his autobiography ‘Who & Me’.

Barry’s family have been in contact with us and it is their firm wish that the book is still published and goes ahead as planned. However, understandably due to circumstances, it is likely that the book will be held up for a week or two whilst we make additions to the book and reflect on recent events.

No copies of the hardback edition were signed by Barry before his death, but the edition will still go ahead (dual signed by Terrance Dicks and Katy Manning) with a print of Barry’s autograph on the title page. The hardback edition will include a transcription of an interview taken at the ‘Who & Them’ event; what was sadly to be Barry’s last convention appearance.

Fantom Films would like to pass on our condolences to Barry’s family and colleagues on the show. We will of course update you on the status of the book as and when we have more information.

Fantom Films regrets to announce that Deborah Watling's Autobiography, 'Daddy's Girl' will now be published at the beginning of 2010, this is due to a number of factors including an exciting discovery we've made in the past couple of weeks! Fantom Films and Deborah would like to apologise to all the fans who have pre-ordered the book, this minor delay will be worth while!

LATEST AUDIO BOOK NEWS

Fantom Films are pleased to be able to announce that we will be releasing a further five audio books later this year...

October will see the release of the hotly anticipated audio book reading of Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla, which is performed by actress Tracey Childs. Tracey joins us after finishing a sell-out run playing Martha to Matthew Kelly’s George in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? at London’s Trafalgar Studios.

Carmilla was published in 1872 heavily influencing Bram Stoker's Dracula some twenty-five years later! In 1970, Hammer adapted it for film, entitled The Vampire Lovers starring Ingrid Pitt in the lead role.

The audio book adaptation of Mary Tamm's autobiography will be released this October on 3-CDs and download priced £13.99!

Following on from the success of last year's H. P. Lovecraft short story collections, Fantom Films can now reveal the publication of three new releases voiced by Fantom Film's regular Phil Reynolds.

Further information and cover art will be released soon!
