We are happy to welcome back one of our all-time favorite guests, the delightful JANET FIELDING, to Gallifrey One. Ms. Fielding will be appearing at The 36 Legends of Gallifrey One: Stories Untold in February 2026.
Janet Fielding enjoyed popularity as brassy Australian flight attendant Tegan Jovanka in Tom Baker’s final Doctor Who serial and alongside Peter Davison for nearly two and a half years of his tenure in the early 1980s, becoming one of the show’s most popular companions. Originally from Brisbane, Australia, Fielding worked in UK television until her retirement from acting in 1991, becoming an advocate for women in film and television and a theatrical agent. After an initial reticence to return to her famous Doctor Who role, she finally reprised the role of Tegan alongside her co-stars in 2006 on audio for Big Finish Productions, a relationship that continues to this day. More recently, Janet appeared in the final Doctor Who story starring Jodie Whittaker, “The Power of the Doctor” in October 2022. She has been the project director and public face of the Project Motorhouse charity, which seeks to “produce youth projects which are designed to help local youths explore their potential.”
Appearing for her sixth Gallifrey One event, we are always delighted to welcome Janet to Los Angeles.
