Get ready to watch the parody Sci-Fi movie we're all been waiting this Saturday in your own home!
Trekkie Girl Sam had the honour of talking to the lead actress (and one of our favourite people) Chase Masterson about this new movie. In this chat, Chase speaks about how you can watch the movie in a special virtual VIP experience featuring guest panels and Q&A's.
If you've been a Star Trek fan and an internet dweller for some years you will have probably seen a reference to Unbelievable!!!!! (There are FIVE explanation marks!).
If you haven't heard of it, you're in for a treat.
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! is a Sci-Fi Parody Adventure which follows the exploits of four offbeat astronauts. One is a puppet, Captain Kirk Stillwood-- who travels to the Moon on a rescue mission to determine the fate of two Space Agency … Continue Reading ››
We have been trying to think how many SFBalls we have now attended. It must be at least five now. We like the Ball for it's relaxed laid back nature. It's not a signing show or a convention. The guest list is small and the event can best be described as intimate. It's local to us too which makes a difference. But best of all, it raises money for the Teenage Cancer Trust which makes a huge impact on young people who have cancer.
Marina Sirtis
We couldn't be more excited to attend this year to see Marina Sirtis (Star Trek's Counsellor Troi). Any fan who has seen her in a panel knows why she is a favourite at events. She is funny, entertaining and can go from unfiltered what-you-see-is-what-you-get to loving queen … Continue Reading ››
Join us live for our Christmas Party. We'll be talking about the newly released Picard Countdown comic, our DS9 rewatch/first watch and talking about what Star Trek episodes are best for watching in the holidays.
We've also put together last minute gift ideas for the Trekkie in your life (you! go treat yourself!)
It's Trekkie Christmas! We can't believe it's been a whole year already but it's time for our favourite Star Trek Convention (yes we know we say they are all our favourites but that's because they are all our favourites!).
We'll be beaming in Thursday evening, unfortunately we are unable to host a landing party this year due to some problems finding somewhere that would host us, but don't let that stop you beaming down early and having a good time!
Here's the highlights and what we'll be doing over the weekend!
Timetables can and do change. We are also notoriously rubbish at reading the timetable so please check all times on the DST Website and twitter account.
Friday:
It's always quieter on Fridays so this is the perfect time to buy some the DST exclusive merchandise that is at risk of selling out over the weekend. We have heard that Forbidden Planet have … Continue Reading ››

Last weekend we went to London Film and Comic at Olympia. As we say every year, it seems to get bigger each time. We attended on the Sunday which was perfect. Whilst it was hot it wasn’t completely sweltering and the crowd size was big enough to have a good vibe without being overwhelmed.
William Shatner
The William Shatner talk was PACKED. This man does a lot of conventions and still draws in the crowds. He keeps it fresh, entertaining and humorous. Because he never stops working he always has breaking news to share with the audience.
This time he told us he was working on a Blues album! He Is also making a documentary about making a Blues album.
