Things We Saw Today: The Doctor Who Cast Being Silly At Comic-Con

Things We Saw Today

The cast of BBC’s Doctor Who may be (almost) out by they’re not down. Except perhaps Arthur Darvill who may be about to take a tumble in this photo. Darvill, along with Matt Smith and Karen Gillan are making the press rounds at Comic-Con right now for what will likely be their last SDCC together. *sniffle* (via BBC America Tumblr

  • Want to go to the big Comic-Con next year? Start saving now. A hotel room at the Manchester Grand Hyatt (attached to the con center) usually goes for about $111 a night but over $500 a night once SDCC comes. It’s not the same prices at all hotels of course but you can expect that rate hike from all of them. I stayed at the Manchester Grand Hyatt one year…with 8 people in the room. (via The Beat)
