Have the dates been announced yet?  I might have missed them, but I didn't notice any flyers for the event over the weekend.

Also, can we have a forum set up so we can start guest suggestions please?  

Just to get things rolling with a few guest suggestions:

I'll reiterate the often requested Dick Van Dyke and Julie Andrews...

How about a few for starters,

Jaime Sánchez - Angel from the Wild Bunch; Marc Antony in Julius Caesar; Rudy in Carlito's Way

Bo Hopkins

L.Q Jones

Kris Kristofferson

Richard Todd

Also, more Lancaster bombers - and please, please, please do all you can to reuinte George Johnson with any of the remaining members of his crew - he mentioned Les Munro might be worth approaching and flying in from New Zealand!

Thanks for a great show over this weekend!

[chrisrus]

its on 11th - 13th september

[Count Fooku]

And I think I read on another forum that it would be at the same hotel as this show.

My requests would be Alan Bean, Gene Cernan and Edgar Mitchell.

[lukeowl]

So it'll be held at Birmingham rather than Heathrow?  Bonus!

Kris Kristofferson

I like those suggestions - DVD and JA would be a huge coup, and I'd actually dig out an album for Kristofferson to sign - he wrote some good songs. Realistic guest too. What do you think Dave P? And MORE MUSIC GUESTS PLEASE!

[Ted Crump]

David Warner was in Birmingham. Harvey Stevens did a show a couple of years back. Billie Whitelaw still acting. I'm all for an Omen reunion please!

[lukeowl]

I'd like to see more Music/Musicals guests.  There's a real void in that respect where these events are concerned.  I mean, how cool would it be to meet the likes of Ennio Morricone or Howard Shore.

I've also suggested an Oliver reunion in the past -

Ron Moody, Shani Wallace, Mark Lester

I'd also love to see these guys

Herbert Lom
John Leyton (I know he's signed before)

Also in support of these three !!!!

[MikeDonovan]

Most importantly, is there any basis in truth for this rumour about Leslie Neilsen having been booked for Autographica 14?

[Phantom]

Surely you cant be serious?

[piles]

It's ok guys .... I've got it .....

*clears throat*

YES ..... I AM SER-IOUS .... AND DON't CALL ME SHIRLEY

*bows deeply*

.... but seriously folks

Nielson has worked with both George Kennedy and Ernest Borgnine, and indeed all three did a US con together last year - so it's highly likely !!
