The subject says it all !

I was number 13 and I got there just before 8 am

When I left CM about 12:30ish the last number given out was 772 but she only had about 3 hours left so did any one miss out ?

I arrived at about 8.30, got ticket no 43, then got two lovely autos when I went to see her at 10.40, both had comments on them and got a piccy of Alex too when she looked up. Happy  ;)

Although I have to admit, NO-ONE asked to see my ticket when I queued up and in fact I still have it now.
Been to every MK Collectormania (1 to 18). They have all been excellent!

People i've seen:

Lots!

For the VQ i was 210 and visited her for autograph after the photo shoot when they were calling for 250 onwards (or thereabouts).

Photo shoot wise I had ticked 111 but in the rush to control the crowds a cheeky chappie managed to sneek in behind me with a ticket in the late 300's when they were no where near calling that number...

I don't think anyone missed out because I was there right at the end when she left and she waited at least 5 minutes to make sure no one else was coming ! :)

We were staying at the hotel and wandered round to the queue about quarter to 10 and we got numbers 202 and 203.

By the time i got to meet Alex she was no longer personalising but I got a photo and my poster signed and was more than happy with that.

Thanks to the crew member who was marshalling the queue for her help in putting my poster tube and photo wallet to one side so I didn't have to faff around with them at the table.

My son and I arrived around 9.45am for the 10am opening to Gate 2 and we got tickets 224 and 225.  Did not get to see her until well after the photoshoots as my son wanted his one signed.  She was lovely to talk to - my son got his shoot photo signed (he was the "Matt Smith Dr Who" with Black Stetson) and I got a great ER photo signed.  That would have been about 3.45-4.00pm ish.  By that stage the Q had opened up to 1-500 so we were fine to join.

We got there just before 9am and has tickets in the 70s. She was very lovely and we had a bit of a chat about Marchlands which was on earlier in the year.

When did she stop personalising? To be honest, I was surprised she was doing so in the first place.
The recent upgrade has resulted in the forum signature length now comprising of a maximum of 12 lines.

That was a brilliant costume, I thought he was one of the best Doctors there.

You were right behind us then.  We got 98 and 99 LOL

Kirstin got photo shoots and went to get the autograph after 3pm so they were not personalised but we hope she will come back and we can get them personalised then.  Nobody asked to see our VT's.
