Well...the questions says it all!!  :blink:

My favourite was the LOTR talk at C5 (the Two Towers one) with Sala Baker, Lawrence Makoare, Harry Sinclair, Paul Norrell, Craig Parker and Jed Brophy

And why?

Cos its the only one I've been to!! LOL (usually cant afford the talks after all the autographs hehe)  :o

Anyway, what about you?  :P

LFCC2's Alien, Aliens and AvP talks were the only ones I've been to cos the previous have never interested me since C4...I think probably the Alien one was the best though.

I think the James Marsters talk at C11 was excellent. I've been to a LOT of JM events and the questions are usually pretty much the same. This time there was a lot of questions which I'd never heard before and James let his guard down more.

The other talk that sticks in my mind was the Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion q&a at LFCC last year just for the entertainment value...it was hilarious they should really have a double act.

I'm crap at remember which particular Collectormania this was at - but my daughter is nearly three and at the time she was 12 weeks old.............

But my favorite talk was the Lord of the Rings talk with loads of guests including Thomas Robins, Royd Tolkien, Billy Boyd and Sala Baker.  Why was this my favorite?? Not only did my daughter do the SMELLIEST nappy ever......but when I returned from a "pit stop", my son Callum was sitting proudly on stage and answering questions!!! Still to this day I think "how the hell did that happen?".  Great fun :-)

There are two types of people in this world :
    Those who have read Lord of the Rings and those who are thinking about it.

I thought the John Barrowman talk in LFCC last year was excellent, funny yet informative especially the parts about filming Torchwood.

He is a real showman and should come back to another event(although he's touring this year)

I've only been to a few talks (and I really should have gone to LFCC from the sounds of it *d'oh!*)

but...

Tony Head and Alexis Denisof were a riot, and I really enjoyed the talk James Marsters gave.
