Charmer Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I've just realised I could have met the wonderful Eleanor Tomlinson from Poldark had I known about her before that. She's behind me in this photo: It got me thinking, has anyone else ever realised they could have met someone at a con after they had been to it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveamyadams Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 i was there that day.Eleanor only had a few people see her. sometimes she was sitting at the desk with no customers at all. if i remember she only had about 20 people for her photoshoot. would be a bit different now though.

Faerie Tanith Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Which event was this? I've been a fan of Eleanor since Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging (don't judge me for my tastes as a 15-year-old!) and would have jumped at the chance to meet her!

MarioVl Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) It got me thinking, has anyone else ever realised they could have met someone at a con after they had been to it? Oh, indeed I have. This year at LFCC I couldn't find Caroline Blakiston (Mon Mothma in Star Wars Episode IV) , so I assumed she had canceled at the last minute. Afterwards I was looking through a friend's pictures of the event and saw her autograph. She was only on Saturday and her table was between Dave Prowse's and Kenny Baker's, their queues were so busy that I didn't even see her when I passed through the area. Doh! Also, a few years ago, I found out two weeks after the event that Gail Simone had been there! I was so busy with photoshoots that I didn't even look at the comic artists and writers section. I would have loved to meet her. Since then I make a point of carefully checking that area, and have had some very nice encounters - my highlights from this year are Georges Jeanty and Karen Berger.
