Noah was so sweet and i agree he does make u wanna smile - every time i saw him he was smiling and he seemed like he was really enjoying himself. When i met him he was really nice and very sweet.
Jimmy was great, mentioned that he spoke 5 diffrent languages and was very friendly.
Tony was great really friendly, nice and courteous and i would love to meet him again
Emma was also great smiley, bubbly and friendly
Overall i had enjoyed it, was quiet but it meant that people got time with actors as most had an open queue or were on low VT's.

Matthew Lewis was possibly the best guest I have ever met. So down to earth I felt so comforable chatting with him.

Anthony was great exactly as I thought he would be though. Very serious professional who could have a good laugh.

Michael Winslow was hilarious. Obviously loves his talent.

Emma Caulfield was almost too hot

I liked everyone so much.

I always tend to forget to try and make conversation with people, but the longest time talking would of been to Chloe Annett, we both have the 2 dots over the e so we bonded over that for a bit.

Matthew Lewis was really sweet. As was Noah, when my friend came we spoke to him a bit about my wife and kids.

I have officially awarded Michael Winslow as best autographer, never seen a signature like it.

I can't wait for november.



oh and the 2 guys who make the tozzer comics, I spent a while there today, they were great, got 2 sketches in the books I bought, hope they come back.

Doctor Who: Peter Davidson, Paul McGann

Soon to meet: No-one...

While I thoroughly enjoyed meeting each of the guests that I did, I have to say that meeting Michael Winslow was a real treat for me. Have been wanting to meet him for a really long time, coz he's made me laugh so much with all the ridiculous noises he makes.

I was originally going for Emma and Anthony. They were both lovely, I somehow ended up in a conversation with Anthony about yesterday's Man Utd match (although neither of us are football fans?!?) and Emma was complimenting me on my jewelery. But I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with how nice Kai Owen and Matthew Lewis were. Would love to meet them again.  :P

Im not sure who I thought was best..
Marshall was cool, seemed a bit nervouse, and the poor guy was so quiet que wise I noticed saturday, but seemed to enjoy the chat we got to have about the difference between the 70's and 80's clothes etc
Dean, also a cool guy, but I kinda went a bit shy on him and got to have a little chat, just hope I didnt make a prat of myself in front of him..
Bruno seemed a bit shy/overwhelmed even though he didnt seem busy, but again not a nice chat with him about digital cameras and he seemed to come out of his shell at that..prob glad it was something different to chat about other than corrie or dr who  :P

Emma had a chat with about the evils of sunday mornings, and she was saying how it was still about 4am american time so she was surprised she was awake heh
Then Kai, we had a chat about the rugby and the Wales vs Ireland match..

My best guest hmm...im thinking it has to be Marshall..

Both guests who I worked with, Anthony Head on Saturday and Kai Owen on Sunday were fantastic.

Anthony loved to laugh, and we had a lot ongoing jokes regarding my abilities with different cameras and the "smoothe functionings" of the his queue.

Kai was very down to earth, and had a great enthusiasm about the event as it was his first ever convention. He also liked to laugh a lot and joke about.

I had a great weekend, it never seems like work when I am around guests like Anthony and Kai!

had to be Emma and tony for me the only reason i went to Manchester which is like 6 1/2 hours from my house so was a long day but worth it and i got to speak for ages to both of them.

just looking at the guest talks proved once again there is still a lot of interest in buffy. Can we have a cast reunion over here please?

it was also nice to see Marshall and Dean as well though from ashes to Ashes, would love to see phil and keeley though as well.

thanks for a great day out SM.

I have to say Doug Bradley, a really, really nice bloke with a top sense of humour and a genuine passion for his played character. I spoke to him for a while about his films, and other horror films too, particularly the nightmare on elm street films.

I went to the "life on mars" talk which I thought was ace too, they were really funny guys

Also had a really nice chat with Chloe Annet about forbidden planet (the shops that is)
