Hall H


I know there isn't an exact rhyme or reason to when panels and signings will be, but from past schedules, does anyone know when any Doctor Who events(panels and signings, etc) happen? If I do score tickets I would love to know what days I should get if I can only get 1 or 2

All the big ones are usually on Friday and Saturday.

No idea if there are Doctor Who panels this year. I don't remember any Doctor Who panel, but I'm not a big fan of it.

About the days... that's a lottery... you don't know what panels are in which day... they are announced afterwards.

> All the big ones are usually on Friday and Saturday.

"All... usually" those don't match really well. I have seen big panels also on Thursday and Sunday... But the "core" is Friday and Saturday... also because they are the only 2 days with full schedule of panels. (BR20 starts thursday afternoon)

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought that the past couple of years Dr. Who has been on Sunday in Hall H?

That's what I vaguely remember hearing...maybe ill have to look into getting sunday passes as well just in case(if i dont get 4 day w/out preview)

I ran into the Doctor in a hotel lobby last year.  I got his autograph for the wrong friend of mine because my memory sucks, but I did get his autograph.

That's cool!!

I hoping they will do something special since its the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who.

Yeh it's generally on Sunday from past experience.

Last year they had the SDCC panel and signing on Sunday. Carol Skinner signed in the BBC America booth Saturday. Nerd HQ had the 3 stars in a panel on Saturday night. Also there was a special fan meet up where the stars dropped in as a surprise for a few minutes.

They only signed at the official SDCC signing. Last year was my first year at SDCC and judging by the interest I have seen it will only grow.

It was on Sunday in 2011 too.  I was there!  I camped out all night in Hall H for it.  Definitely going to do it again if it happens this year.  I hope they put it on the same day as Supernatural like they have the past two years because I love both shows and would rather spend the night on the cold hard ground for Hall H as little as possible.

hm...seems like i may be trying to get at least friday saturday and sunday now instead of just friday and saturday...at this rate i'll be trying for all four days instead!
Just didn't want to have too many nights in a hotel as that adds up fast!(and im bumbed as heck that I can't use my employee discount as I work for Marriott and its blocked out  )

(and im bumbed as heck that I can't use my employee discount as I work for Marriott and its blocked out  )

This is a long shot, but have you tried the Marriott in the Gaslamp? I think there are also Marriott hotels on the shuttle route in MIssion Valley and at the airport.

This is a long shot, but have you trued the Marriott in the Gaslamp? I think there are also Marriott hotels on the shuttle route in MIssion Valley and at the airport.

I've been checking for a while and unfortunately the closest hotel with a decent rate with my discount is in tijuana...and I dont like the idea of crossing the border every day to save a buck.

I will keep checking though, as i never know what will show up
