19/10: ARTHUR DARVILL GIVE-A-WAY  Unfortunately Arthur is unable to attend this year's Utopia event, however he has kindly agreed to autograph a number of 10x8 prints which are available as a FREE bonus to all those purchasing a full weekend ticket before 31st January 2012...! Go on, book now... you know you want to!		16/01: FOUR MONTHS TO GO! The countdown starts here... with only four months to go there is still a whole host of guests and activities to reveal, but be warned there are now less than 50 tickets available! Latest guest announcements include Joshua Hayes who starred as Lucas in A Good Man Goes to War, and fantom regular Joseph Lidster who returns for his fourth Utopia!! More announcements very soon!		31/10: THE DAME OF POMPEII Utopia simply wouldn't be Utopia without honorary Fantom Films Dame, the ever gorgeous Tracey Childs. Tracey will be on hand to discuss the high fashion, high drama, sailing series Howards' Way, her snobbish turn in Ancient Rome in Doctor Who, and a whole host of other things, maybe even a few exclusives on some forthcoming audio projects...
09/10: SURELY IT'S SUSAN? An actual Doctor Who legend, and not just a companion, no no no, Carole Ann Ford played the ONLY relative of The Doctor's we have seen in the entire history of the show. Carole Ann will be meeting fans and sharing her experiences of working at the start of the television show which has captivated the nation for nearly fifty years. That's Doctor Who, incase you were uncertain at the back!		21/09: BON(TIE) TEMPS   We absolutely thrilled that stage and screen legend Bonnie Langford has agreed to attend Utopia 2012. Best known to Doctor Who fans as the health crazed computer expert (really?) and all round fashion victim, Melanie Bush, Bonnie recently found herself back in the spotlight with Dancing On Ice... has anyone packed their skates?!		12/09: ONE WE INVITED EARLIER   Long before he tackled excursions, makes and messy elephants, Peter Purves was space hero Steven Taylor, tackling terrors from Daleks to Monoids to Dodo. We are delighted that Peter will be joining us in Oxford, and who knows what kind of special workshops could be heading your way...
24/08: HAVE YOU MET MRS JONES?   Well if you haven't, then now's your chance, with our first fantastic companion announcement!   The former Miss Josephine Grant, now Mrs Jo Jones, herself Katy Manning will be with us at Utopia to discuss her time on Doctor Who, her return to the role for Big Finish and the Sarah-Jane Adventures, and a whole lot more besides! More exciting guest news very shortly...		17/08: CONVENTION AND THE RANI Esteemed actress Kate O'Mara who is probably best known for her stints on Dynasty and Howard’s Way will be joining us for Utopia 2012! Although Kate was one of Hammer Studio's Glamour Girls (The Vampire Lovers, The Horror of Frankenstein), these days is best known for her prominent roles in dramas such as The Brothers, Bad Girls, Triangle and a down on their luck Lady of the Manor in the revamped Crossroads has seen Kate carve a niche for herself as a determined "ball-breaking" female on television. Other television credits include Emergency – Ward 10, Danger Man, The Saint, The Champions, The Avengers, Department S, Paul Temple, and Absolutely Fabulous.		27/07: FOLLOW THE LEADER Our *excellent* first guest for Utopia 2012 is the definitive Cyberleader himself, David Banks. Making a rare convention appearance, with credits on Earthshock, The Five Doctors, Attack of the Cybermen and Silver Nemesis, we are sure that he will be able to regale us with some fantastic stories of his time as a man of steel!
