this event is more for the classic film guests so we are not planning to have the likes of David Tennant or Robert Pattinson for event like this .

its more for the collectors and enthusiasts

so we are looking for guest to take part in signing old poster and artifacts that they appeared in or films or shows they helped to make .

the event is a nice small event with around 150 tables so we are going to look for guests that are from the UK and are from the classic british film industry like Bond etc and also we will try to find and invite film Directors and producers to attend as well , all in all making the event a great place for real film fans .

if you have some thoughts of who you would like to see please post on here and we will see who we can get for you

i look forward to seeing some of you at the show next year

i met him last weekend,a great guy to chat with,he has alot of interesting storys to tell

[Valtharen]

Can we get some Special Effects people please.
People like Neil Gorton who have created amazing pieces and costumes for british TV and Film.

[TerraHawk]

Neill has done a LFCC before, he was a guest on the SFX stand.

Obviously there's plenty of guests I'd still like to meet, but (with the Ultimate Dr Who con on the cards to budget for) I'm looking to scale back from collectors fairs, not add more to my calendar. It's not worth the travel expense for the odd one or two guests

[Ritchie]

I'd like to add my support for John Boorman. Point Blank is one of my favourite films.

Also, would like to meet Alex Cox for Repo Man.

[space cadet steve]

Ridley Scott
Any of the Pythons
Gerry Anderson
Ray Harryhausen

and would be very happy if you get Ian Holm

[PoTtHeAdWhOvIaN]

some of the older stars in Harry Potter would be great:
Maggie Smith
Jim Broadbent
Michel Gambon
Alan Rickman
Roger Llyod-Pack
Richard Hardy
etc.
like just not HP maybe to boost attendees do more classic actor in more new things...

[DavidB]

I really don't think guests of the stature of Maggie Smith and Jim Broadbent are ones that SM are aiming to get for this event.

This is a much smaller event.

[PoTtHeAdWhOvIaN]

i know if you read the bottom part thats what imm trying to say not necessary that they are suggestions more of examples

[rosie727]

what about Sam Neil from Reilly ace of spies, jurrasic park and daybreakers
sean bean
Alan Rickman

[space cadet steve]

Jon Finch
Billie Whitelaw
Jean Marsh
BRIAN BLESSED
Peter Lord (aardman)
Christopher Lee
Barbara Shelley

[Kevinstowmarket]

'alan rickman' 'christopher lee' I think people are missing the point!! Small event!?

I second this, espeically Maggie Smith, I've loved her since I saw her in Hook. alan rickman would be amazing as well

[DavidB]

I do think people need to think a little smaller. Most of the guests suggested in this topic would get through hundreds at a Collectormania or LFCC. This isn't manageable at this venue.
