Admiral Ackbar Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Jeez, this is a big one for me. My train from Liverpool doesn't arrive at Euston until 9am unfortunatley, so won't be passing the event doors until 10ish maybe. I won't get my hopes up, but I've got everything crossed to add him to my Star Wars autograph collection. Hoping the force is on my side on the 29th.

whysoserious79 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I've got a great memory of meeting him. It was in January last year, on my birthday, I had just been to see The Force Awakens at the Science Museum in London (70mm projection showing), and on the way home I was waiting for a train on the Piccadilly Line and saw him sitting on a bench reading a paper! I said "Your are Ian McDiarmid aren't you?" and he replied with a smile "Yes" and I told him what a massive fan of his I was. Made my birthday!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricksta Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Given how popular and expensive Ian is, as with some others that have posted here, I am a little surprised he is not a diamond guest! I think my son would like another photo with Ian on the throne but this time with the Palpatine make up and costume!!! A make up shoot sounds like a very good diamond guest exclusive to me!! Something for SM to think about for another year, if Ian is prepared to do it....! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1980 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I dont think they've tried a full make up shoot since Robert Englund in 2015. It would greatly reduce autograph and photo shoots because of the time to get him in an out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be worth the wait but I don't think Ian would agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators StuartG2198 Posted March 24, 2017 Moderators Share Posted March 24, 2017 Ian is without a doubt one of my favourite guests, really chatty and even spoke in his Papatine voice to a kid in front of me, I was fangirling for some time after that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjbleming Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Hi Batflash, just a heads up, looks like you have some non Shomasters conventions in your signature bit at the bottom there, you can't mention non Showmasters conventions in the forum as it's against forum rules, even in your bit at the bottom of your posts. You might want to edit and remove those before a mod spots them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I did not know that but now I do :) Unrelated but this has led me to read your signature Batflash, you may know but just in case you don't Showmasters have a Sherlock convention in the US in May and in the UK in October. Although neither Ben or Martin have been announced you might want to take a look at them and keep an eye on them as although it does come down to availability if they are going to be at any of the Showmasters event it would probably be one of those.

I know, I check the site sometimes but nothing so far + I think it is in a period of time that my final exams start. I would love to go but school comes first of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Good attitude, yes school does come first. Usually if Ben (and presumably Martin if he goes, he has never attended any event so far) does go it's not announced until much nearer the time as he's so busy it's not usually until nearer the show that he knows if he can come or not, last time he was announced about 2 or 3 days before. Please do come and post in the Sherlocked thread on here if you want to chat or ask any questions about it. Anyway I just wanted to let you know in case you didn't know about it but now we need to get it back on topic. Star Wars guests YAY!
