"Young Fans Ask" Panel Question Submissions Open
Every year, we hold the "Young Fans Ask" Q&A panel with one of our Doctor Who guests on our Main Stage. In this panel, we gather a small group of young fans (age 13 and under) to share the stage with a guest to ask their own questions.
The panel takes place on Sunday afternoon, and parents or guardians can now submit questions early on behalf of their child(ren) at this link.
You can also submit questions at Camp Time Lord during the convention weekend. More info about Camp Time Lord, our children's programming track, can be found here.
