Che-Snake Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I think it's kinda disrespectful that these actors names aren't being announced, just their roles :s Ta, Che-Snake :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuariPodcasterWilliamson Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) I think it's kinda disrespectful that these actors names aren't being announced, just their roles :s Ta, Che-Snake :/ I've heard it's because of an issue that some other people were contacting the lesser-known Star Wars guests right after Showmasters announced them in the past, if true it would make sense why they don't and I understand that. However, Zam Wessell's actress is not a first time signer as SM are saying. She did one of the SW events in the US when the Prequels first came out. She may be doing her first Showmasters event and first event in a while but she's definitely not a first time signer (unless it's not the actress I'm thinking of but another one but I doubt that). EDIT: It might well be a different actress after all. Just saw the Jango Fett announcement and if that was Tem Morrison it would be more than £10 for him. I'm curious to see who these two guests in question are. Edited September 26, 2014 by RuariPodcasterWilliamson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OurDek Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 As said earlier, the names aren't mentioned to stop poaching by other events or organisers. This guest has certainly made my mind up to come on the Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chugs Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I thought only one actress played Zam Wessell? Is this the same one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators StuartG2198 Posted September 27, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 27, 2014 Well I've been having a look and I can only find one person that played Zam so am hopeful that this is going to be her, she will make a great addition to my poster along with Caroline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators StuartG2198 Posted September 27, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 27, 2014 Zam only really featured in that one scene in the film anyway really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groge511 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 This whole name thing is confusing. Is she a stunt double or something? If its to stop people trying to contact her then its not going to work. If I was them the first thing I would do is google it. Not hard really. Bit weird guys...

mr fagan Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 So it leanna wiseman then or not ? What is going on? As Ace said to the Doctor "its like a game to you and only you know the rules" are guests now exclusively available to SM and not allowed to go elsewhere? What the hell man? Etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DookuDub Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 This is strange i agree. I cant find another actor that playe her. Who else could it be. It would be good if queen sindel or david could clarify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraHawk Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 are guests now exclusively available to SM and not allowed to go elsewhere? No and that's their problem - if they've found a new name they don't want to reveal the name as they wouldn't be able to stop someone else contacting them, maybe offering more money, or at least denting the number who meet them at the show. These potential organisers will learn their names at the show. But as I've said elsewhere I'd rather not bother meeting them, than stand there knowing I had other things at home I'd have loved to have got signed had I known they'd be there. Had that few years ago - with 'first time' unnamed Stormtrooper Martyn Read. I knew who he was then I met him - and that he had a role in Doctor Who. In fact, it wasn't even his first time as he'd done a Doctor Who event. Before the DVD of his story came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinnvarre Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) Yes I agree with most of the comments on here about the First Timers signing, but without knowing who these people are I'm not going to be able to plan the trip to the event. I need to plan budget depending on what they have been in and even if I want to see these actors. Its only just over a month to go, planning is important. Plus also what about your pre order service if people cant make it? Edited September 29, 2014 by jinnvarre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuariPodcasterWilliamson Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 It surely can't be Leanna Walsman though. She already did at least one event before (not a SM event hence why I'm not naming the event I know she attended). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted October 6, 2014 Author Showmasters Admin Share Posted October 6, 2014 The guests is not Leeanna Walsman we have found another actress that played Zam Wessell that know one knows about which is very cool. Both actors played the seen in the UK and were not credited. as you know we spend a lot of time tracking down these rare first time signers and a lot of time gos into finding them. some time ago we found some first timers and someone tried to book them into another event the week before ours after we put in all the work and resources finding them and booking them so now we have to hold back on the names of these first time signers till the event. over the years we have managed to bring you all 100s of first time guests its only been star wars this has happened with , its a little annoying but we have no other option , i hope you understand where we are coming form and see we want to be able to keep on spending the time to find new people and bring them first to our events. see you at the event jason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand where you are coming from, I'm not sure you do about my stance in it. knowing other credits, will make the difference between me attending or not. I don't want a repeat of the Martyn Read situation - I come face to face with a person knowing I had other stuff at home wanting signing, but not knowing to bring it. It's not who gets them first, it's who provides the most info that matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidSimons Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 All of which is understandable but personally I'm not interested in Star Wars actors, however many SW people have appeared in other shows (for example if you did get Leanna I'd be interested in her because she was in Farscape).. I realise you're concerned about other people stealing your guests, although its not impossible they also found them through their own research. However I would suggest that as a minimum you announce the guest's names on the Monday before the event. If announced then, there would be no possibility of another organiser using those details to steal the guests while myself and other collectors would have an opportunity to research their other roles and if interested bring other items. That has to be in your best interests as well because if I turn up without, for example, that Doctor Who book/DVD/photo there's no way I can spend money on the guest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirtchy Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I will probably meet this guest as it's a first timer, might start an AOTC poster come to think of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
