Great. I leave America, and all of a sudden Doctor Who is huge there.
Via BBC America, some photos of the mobs who greeted Matt Smith and Karen Gillan at a DVD signing at a Barnes & Noble in Manhattan last week:
(What in the name of sanity is Arthur Darvill wearing?)
More at Facebook (you don’t have to be a Facebook member to see the pix).
And then last night, there was a preview screening of the first two episodes of Season 6 in the East Village, and I was not there. Fans apparently camped out to get a seat:
And showed off their Doctor Who crafts:
And brought lots of friends to keep them company:
And had fun:
Looks like it was fun once they got inside, too:
Again, via BBC America via Facebook. And more.
I will console myself by telling myself that perhaps I contributed in some small way to embiggening Doctor Who in America…
