The 72nd meeting of the World Science Fiction Convention takes place in London this year. This will be the first to be held in London since 1965. It will also be the 75th anniversary of the very first Worldcon held in New York in 1939 - something they will be celebrating within their programme and events.

Loncon 3 will be a celebration of science fiction in all its forms with over 7,000 fans expected, along with hundreds of writers, editors, artists, and other professionals from across the genre.

Transformative Works and Cultures editor, Karen Hellekson, will be delivering one of the Academic keynote presentations, and will discuss a range of Doctor Who fan videos, including those that recreate missing episodes and reframe post-2005 episodes.
