-10am Doctor Who (run by Andrew 4 - 6 slots)
Something is very badly wrong. The usually faithful TARDIS nearly collides with an large object inside the Vortex, which is hurtling towards a particular point in space. Entire solar systems are being torn from their place in the sky and dragged towards that selfsame point. -
The Great Attractor, a body with the gravitational mass of ten thousand Milky Ways, an astronomical anomaly and a story used to frighten children on Gallifrey. No Time Lord has ever returned from the Great Attractor and, despite the allure of a power source that would put even the black holes the Time Lords use to shame, the area was eventually cordoned off.
Now with inhabited planets in danger and the effects of the Great Attractor reaching back through time the Doctor must investigate further

-10am Dungeron & Dragons 4.0 (run by Glenn)

-2pmDungeon & Dragons 3.5 (run by Craig 4 - 7 slots)
A shadow has been cast over the kingdom of Avalon. Every day more reports of the dead rising flood the king's ears.
At the focal point of the unrest lies the entrace to the Dungeon of Eternal Darkness, the tomb of Lord Abaddon the Dark and Generically Evil, once hell-bent on world domination.
Thus, the king has sent you - the kingdom's most elite band of adventurers - to investigate the threat and stop the dark lord Abaddon's plans before it's too late!

-2pmTerminator - Killing John Connor (run by Skimble 4 slots)
It has been some years since Skynet became self-aware and pre-emptively launched a devastating nuclear strike in order to save itself from destruction. The human resistance scavenges the ruins of the world's greatest cities for weapons and supplies that will help them hold out against the machines.
Our story begins when machine activity increases in the vicinity of a resistance base and John Connor begins to suspect that something big is planned. You will be part of a team chosen by him to investigate this and deal with whatever the new threat is.
Are you prepared to uncover a shocking truth and then kill John Connor for the good of all humanity?
