stephy749 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I was just wondering if this was likely to take place in 2015 I know we are only half way through the year but usually with your events people know way way in advance At least if people had a date / month people could start to plan Or were they planning on doing it like the star trek one Date, location and all the guests announcements all in one go?

Moderators DavidB Posted June 9, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 9, 2014 As soon as there's information, whether it's location or year etc, then it'll be announced and put here. Until then, unfortunately we have no further details to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericsdonor Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I'd say definitely 2015 at this rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartyJnr Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I wouldn't say that actually, they're have been times when a convention has only been announced a few months beforehand. If they're aiming for this year they still have plenty of time. For bigger guests it's easier if it's a shorter time before the convention rather than announcing for 6 months down the line then having them drop it for work... If that makes sense haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted June 10, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 10, 2014 While it's good if it can be announced in advance, I think a lot of fans would make short notice plans for this anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurab1 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I'm sure things are happening behind the scenes. More hoops to jump through than usual, as the event is official. We may just have to wait another week or so, when the next Milton Keynes show will be able to be scheduled and this one can hopefully then be scheduled as well.

CosmicAvatar Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Oh, dear... I waited for as long as I could before booking certain things - praying now there won't be a clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jid1993 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 As much as I'm excited for this, hoping it's not in September...back to uni 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcangel Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Thanks for the update. Look forward to finding out definite dates, venue and guests, and like everyone else hope that it won't clash with holidays/other events/other committments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurab1 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Yay! Thanks for the update :) Please note that the timing could mean some guests might be Sunday only, people. I just hope I won't also be Sunday only! Edited June 19, 2014 by laurab1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurab1 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 oh goodness, I really hope it's not in August when myself and many other people will be on holiday I doulbt that - the second half of August already has shows, and I suspect SM would be looking to avoid the first half.

Doc Bones Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Martin is in theatre for the next "3 months"..........just saying..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted June 19, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 19, 2014 Theatre doesn't always stop people attending events. It can limit when, but we've had plenty work it into schedules. And of course, that's only one potential guest out of many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Bones Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 No DavidB you misunderstand me.... I was mentioning it as a positive!! (It's better than being in America filming a TV series for example.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted June 19, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 19, 2014 Oh of course :) but people often give it as an example of being too busy too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericsdonor Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Wouldn't that coincide with both Martin and Benedict's theatre runs? Edited June 19, 2014 by ericsdonor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurab1 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Wouldn't that coincide with both Martin and Benedict's theatre runs? Martin's Richard III is July to Sept this year, so he would probably only be able to attend on the Sunday. Benedict's Hamlet has now been pushed to August to Oct 2015 at the Barbican, as they couldn't get a theatre big enough this autumn.

ericsdonor Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I knew when they were lol I'm just stating that in the next 3 months unless it's July it's going to coincide with their theatre performances that's all 😃😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators etmuse Posted June 19, 2014 Moderators Share Posted June 19, 2014 July will coincide with Martin's theatre anyway. Benedict's is still well over a year away so it'll take a pretty big delay to coincide with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darth.ally Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 If it's in the next 3 months, that's me not able to attend (Rupert Graves or not). Oh well Unless nice things start happening in my life and I end up with some money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
