I know Sir Roger is in this neck of the woods the week before.   It would be absolutely great is you could get him in for the event..........   I'd be willing to pay upto ÂŁ75 per auto for him.............    well ??????

(PS - at approx ÂŁ50 per 2mins (i'm assumin that this covers auto/conv/photo etc) = which comes to ÂŁ1500 per hour, or for 8 hours - ÂŁ12k - all to UNICEF and if he does the Sat and Sun - its ÂŁ24k - c'mon - thats got to be worth considering - esp as he's in the 'area' !!!)

I'd sell my soul to you if you could arrange this..........

If he attended, you can put me down for 2 autographs and a photoshoot at ÂŁ75 a go.  I'd be willing to spend serious money to meet Sir Roger Moore. I think he's worth it, especially if it was for charity.

Good stuff!

Did he sign any quick photos at all and was he dedicating his book?

I'm seeing him next Thursday at The National Theatre.

From the blurb in his Waterstones signings... it's The Book Only, nothing else. Heck, it seems he's only signed on for an hour at a time... I know he's in Norwich the Wed before Autographica (22nd). Before that its Waterstones Piccadilly, and Bluewater.

After that interview on Wossy, it could be quite a hot item tomorrow...

I don't think appearing at a public book signing event is the same as appearing at a 'competitors' convention...

Well seeing as it seems Roger ain't coming to Autographica, and these signings aren't other shows, as such, put on by competitor organisations, plus Dave or Too Tall haven't chirped up..

Seeing as I bought my ticket and dinner ticket this past week, it's hardly likely that I won't show up!

We are awaiting the specifics regarding book signings, premieres and the like, so until they have been totally ruled out, nothing will be done about them at the moment.

These things may need to be dealt with retrospectively.

It's something that, quite unrelatedly, I asked for clarification upon a few days ago; it seems a decision is still pending.
Every time you post a huge signature, a cute fluffy little kitten dies.

:wub:

Posed photos? Wow. I'm meeting him, please God, on Friday in a Waterstones signing; not sure if they'll do photos there as well. Was there a limit on how many copies you could get signed? I'm hoping to get some Christmas presents out of this.

Awesome stuff if it's true that he did posed photos!

Wouldn't that and dedications possibly be a timing issue that could depend on how many books he has to sign?
