Who showrunner Ken Deep joins us this month to discuss how his lifelong love of a show has grown from fan clubs to podcasts to convention hosting.&amp;nbsp; Ken talks about discovering Doctor Who, riding his bike across town to the &quot;skyscraper of Doctor Who Towers&quot;, the joys of running a Doctor Who convention, and how a randomly recorded episode at the end of a dubbed Doctor Who tape led him straight into another fandom. That fandom would be Ken's Pick of the Month - the BBC renegade sci-fi classic, Blake's 7!&amp;nbsp; Hear us discuss why this is one of Ken's favorite all-time shows, how very closely related it is to Doctor Who, how influential the show was to other sci-fi phenomena that came afterwards, and how it still holds up over 40 years later.&amp;nbsp; Was this the Torchwood of its time?&amp;nbsp; And to exactly which Star Trek episode does Ken compare the entire series? Find out more about L.I Who 2023 at longislanddoctorwho.com for guests, hotel information, and tickets.&amp;nbsp; That's August 18-20, 2023 at Holiday Inn Long Island.&amp;nbsp; Who &amp; Company will also be there!&amp;nbsp; Come say hello!
