  7. I'll pin this one seeing it already has some important info. Peter Capaldi Diamond Passes are in extremely short supply, as already posted in a number of threads. No further warning for Diamond Passes at the moment. I will update with photoshoot warnings once I receive them.

  14. Peter did have a small number of Diamond Passes released again this morning. These are definitely the last ones. I don't know how many in total, but I was told to let everyone know it's the last Chance and to pick them up quickly if you still want one. I will update on other guests when I hear back.

  21. For photos you can join the queue anytime after your DP number has been called, but only on the day you choose to have your photo when you bought the pass. DP guests usually have two photo sessions during the day. See the schedule when it is posted here.

  30. Wow, after months without new material we get two trailers in a week, woo hoo! I loved the clip they just released, it’s great that they took the time to shoot a special scenes, but yeah I’m eager to see some actual footage from the episodes and hear some dialogues so I can’t wait for the proper trailer on Thursday. Which is also a week before LFCC, too much Doctor Who at the same time, don’t know if I can cope It took me a while to adjust to Matt Smith as the Doctor, in all honesty. Ended up loving him, and he was a brilliant Doctor, all his quirks are so inherently part of the character now. But at first I struggled to see him as “the Doctor”, probably because Tennant was so loved and iconic, or because he was so young, to this day series 5 gives me a weird feeling... This time with Jodie the change has been so drastic and anticipated that probably I’m more prepared, although I’ll still get that funny “where is Capaldi” feeling at first, but it’ll be fine, love what Jodie is doing with the role in the few brief scenes we’ve seen so far

  38. With the recent surge in popularity of The Expanse, I would have expected more guests to be anounces. Especially since there are so many cancelations for the Battlestar Galactica cast. Both Cas Anvar and Dominique Tipper showed interest in attending LFCC alongside their colleagues Steven and Wes. Unfortunately, Dominique was told there is "no space" for her. Not sure if that's an euphemism for "we couldn't work out the money" but who knows. Dominique on Twitter: Cas Anvar on Twitter: Showmasters, please, bring us an epic photoshoot with all 4 actors!

  39. 3 - PHOTO SHOOTS: What photo shoots are there and how much are they? Photo session tickets are separated in batches. For the busy sections the will be called in batch order. The 2017 schedule can be found here: How it works: 1) Photo session tickets are split in different batches. For larger photo sessions you will be called in batches, usually batches of 100. Diamond Passes will go through first for the Diamond Guests. Gold Passes get priority after Diamond Passes and are called first for all non Diamond Guest shoots. If you have a Gold or Diamond Pass Pass and arrive after the shoot has started let crew know. They'll sort you in accordingly. For extremely busy photo shoots where there are 2 shoots, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Usually the first 4 or 5 batches will be called in the morning and the remaining ones in the afternoon. If you have tickets in the batch 1 to 5 range you can still go in the afternoon section. If you have a ticket for the afternoon session and can not make the afternoon session please talk to the crew and they will try and help. 2) Your photo will be taken by a professional photographer. 3) The shot will be taken in front of a backdrop and with lighting to ensure the best possible image. 4) You will be standing beside the guest, and not leaning over a table. 5) Your picture will be a 6 by 9 colour photo and, all being equal, should be ready for collection as you leave the photo shoot area. 5) All of this combined should provide you with something unique and special. Tickets for the prop photo sessions are not available in advance, you just queue up on the day and pay. Current prop photos announced: General Lee - 10 Pounds Stranger Things, Alphabet / Joyce's living room prop photo - 10 Pounds The Areas for the prop shots will be marked accordingly on the floor plan. Some shoots will be in the Green Screen Area. What if I have a clash? If you have a clash with a paid for talk or another photo shoot... Talk to crew at the photo shoot and they will do their best to get you through as quickly as possible so you can get to your other activity. If it's two photo shoots that are clashing, always go first to the photo shoot that starts first. If both start at the same time, go to the one that is shorter first. If you have concerns about your photo shoot times please feel free to post on the schedule thread so a moderator or experienced user can advise you. Please be sure to include as much information as possible including Guest, batch number, day and what the clash is. Does this mean I can't take a picture of the guest during the autograph session? No, there will be no restriction on taking posed photos at their autograph table because of the photo shoots. The photo shoot is purely an added extra for those that would like it. There is of course the chance that due to time constraints or the guests wishes that posed photos will be stopped at their autograph table. What happens if it doesn't come out for some other reason? Before you leave the photo area, speak to a member of the crew, you will go back in and have a retake. Where will it be? They will be within the main hall. Maps will be available on the day. Where do you get the tickets? Pre-sold from the online shop or at the show if any are still available. How many tickets can I buy at once? There is no limit on the number you can buy. You can buy more than 1, i.e. for friends or others without internet access. Although if you're thinking you'll buy 20 to get more time with the guest(s), you should remember that its the moving people in and out of shot which takes time - photographing two stationery people 20 times takes a lot less time than photographing 20 different couples. Can my friend and I both be in the same picture? The simple answer is yes, but you will both have to have a ticket. It is one ticket per person! You can then pose together in two photos and one copy of each will be developed. Children need their own tickets unless they're little and we are talking babes in arms. If you buy only one ticket you CAN NOT have two people in the one shot! Note: No more than 2 people will be allowed in the shot. Can I order extra prints? Not at the show. The photoshoot images will be available to buy as JPEGs after the show. If you buy your JPEG you can of course use it to get extra prints. The cost per JPEG is 5 Pounds. In link for the download site will be posted on the Forum after the Event once all Pictures have been uploaded. What time will the prints be ready? As you leave the photo shoot area. We use instant printing. How many tickets will be sold? Anywhere between 20 and 1000 depending on the guest. Can I ask for an autograph during the photo shoot? The simple answer is no, the photo shoots operate very quickly, as a general rule you will have the opportunity to say a quick hello to the guest before the picture is taken and the next person is brought forward. The Small Print: Showmasters reserves the right to refuse anyone from taking part in the photo shoot; if payment has already been made then we will refund them.

  40. 2 - ON THE DAY: ***************************************************************************** 2.1 - Autograph Info: ***************************************************************************** How much are the guests autographs and what days will they be there? If you have a Diamond Pass and want more than the autographs included with your pass you can get them when you go through, but you will need to purchase extras. Info and Schedule for the YALC can be found here: https://www.londonfilmandcomiccon.com/index.php/zones/yalc What ways can I pay for an autograph? Cash - You pay the crew member at the guests desk. Credit Card - You can pay for autographs by credit card at the photo shoot/ credit card sales desk. You will be buying show vouchers. These are not guess specific and come is various denominations (£5, £10, £20). You then use these vouchers like cash at the autograph desk. What pictures will a guest have? SM do not post what pictures a guest will have in advance. There are reasons for this that I'm not going to go into. When you get there you can ask to see the pictures and if there are none you like you could go and buy one. There are always lots of stalls with good quality 8x10 photos. Saying that it's always a good idea that if you want a specific image signed, get it in advance and bring it with you. Are there any restrictions on what items can be signed? It really depends on the guest. Some are very picky some aren't. Basically if you THINK there is a CHANCE the guest will not sign your item. e.g. It's not official, it's a nude/semi-nude picture. Then make sure you have a back up. You may want to bring along another item or picture with you but do remember when you pay for an autograph you are entitled to one of the guests 8x10 pictures for free. So do take one, that way if the guest will not sign your item for whatever reason you have the picture to be signed instead. ***************************************************************************** 2.2 - Organising your day: **************************************************************************** I have an issue, what do I do? If it's something minor, the first thing to do is talk to a member of the crew. They're pretty easy to spot and they'll do all they can to help. If they can't they'll escalate it. If it's something pretty serious then go to the Organisers Booth. One of the shows organisers is always on hand there to sort out any problems you may have. Be it a problem with a stall holder, a crew member or a lost bag. Sending Showmasters an email or posting on the forum later isn't very constructive as it's normally too late for them to do anything about it. Please do go straight to the organisers booth as soon as possible so that they have a chance to rectify the problem. What's the basic layout of the hall for LFCC? The 2018 layout should be confirmed the week of the show. For now please see the 2017 topic for reference. Can I come and go as I want? When you leave for the first time you will be given a stamp on the back of your hand so that you can leave and re-enter as many times as you like. What are the guests like? A WARNING!! The guests are only human. I'm not going to get into the "They get paid to be there they should be nice to everyone" argument. They have bad days just like the rest of us. Most of the guests are very nice and polite, but do be aware the guests will not always live up to your expectations and might be grumpy, not talkative or even just sign your picture without looking up at you. Basically it's always safer to start with low expectations rather than expecting the world and being upset when you don't get it. Saying this though, don't forget that we all react better to a smile than a frown. Go up to the guest smiling and looking happy to meet them and you're more likely to get a good response in return. What time do the guests arrive? Normally they are there at opening, but can and does change. What time do the guests have lunch? Guests go for lunch anytime between about 12:00 and 14:00 for about an hour. So don't worry if they're not there. They'll be back. What time do the guests stop signing? As a norm if a guest is busy they will continue signing until the end of the show. But it is not a good idea to leave it this late. Sometimes if a guests queue goes quiet they will leave at about 16:30. So as a rule of thumb don't leave it until after 16:30 to join a guests queue. One other thing to be aware of is guests will have talks and obviously this means they will have less time for signing, also you don't want to turn up when they've gone for their talk. So do check to see if a guest is doing a talk (Of course you may want to go to it). **************************************************************************** 2.3 - Queuing inside and out: ***************************************************************************** Where do I queue outside before the event, and how do the queues work? When: FRI 27TH, SAT 28TH AND SUN 29TH JULY Where: Grand Hall Entrance – Olympia Way – opposite Kensington Olympia Station What: Gold Pass Entrance - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Where: Olympia Main Reception – on Hammersmith Road What: YALC Entrance - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Where: Olympia West Entrance – in Blythe Road What: Extra Help Entrance for Day tickets & 3 Day Ticketholders - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Where: Olympia West - Gate H – in Blythe Road What: Main Entrance – Day Tickets, 3 Day Tickets, Diamond Pass Collection and Pay On The Day (subject to availability) ************************************************************************ Olympia West Entrance and Gate H will open for queuing at the following times Friday 8.00am Saturday 7.00am Sunday 7.30am If you have a Gold Pass and Diamond passes - you should go to the Gold Pass entrance and your Diamond Passes will be held with your Gold passes. You do not need to go to both places. If you have a YALC, or Gold ticket and require extra help, there will be extra help points at both of those entrances so you should go there first. What are Virtual Queues and Virtual Tickets and how do they work? To help cut down the amount of time you have to spend standing in a queue SM have introduced a virtual queuing system. When you go to meet one of the busier guests, instead of everyone standing in an "real" queue you will be handed a ticket with a number on it (your Virtual Ticket). This number is your position in the "virtual" queue. Only around 30 people stand in the "real" queue. You can join this "real" queue once your position in the "virtual" queue is reached. Think of it like taking a number in a doctors waiting room. You will know your position is reached when your Virtual Ticket number is called. This system means once you have your VT for a guest you are free to wander around the event, join other queues and get other VTs. This system is only used on the busier guests, for the quieter guests you will just join the "real" queue straight away. Note: You do not pay for the Virtual Tickets they are free. You pay per autograph when you come back and join the "real" queue. Note: Virtual Tickets are given out ONE PER PERSON, you will only be given one ticket. If you want to get a ticket for a friend there is nothing stopping you from joining the queue again and getting another ticket Just remember it will only be one ticket for each time you queue up. Note: Only a ticket holder will be able to join the queue once their number is called. If you are planning to accompany someone (to take photographs or help carry bags, etc) you will still need a ticket, even if you are not planning on getting an autograph yourself. This does also apply to adults accompanying children. Virtual Ticket numbers for guests will be announced (in batches of around 30) once the previous group of people in the "real" queue have their autographs. Once your Virtual Ticket number is called you can then join the much smaller "real" queue. There will of course still be some queuing involved in the "real" queue! If you don't want to have to keep going back to the guests queue to see what number they are up to, you can check one of the white boards around the hall. These are kept up to date every 30 minutes or so. The numbers shown are for any number UP TO that number. You can go up anytime after your number is called. So if you have ticket number 100 and the board is showing 200, this is fine, you haven't missed your turn. Diamond Pass holders are called by numbers for the guest they have a Diamond Pass for. Should they miss this signing time they can join the end of the line for a guest at any time unless the crew has to cut the line off as explained above. What time are Virtual Tickets given out? Virtual Tickets start to be given out at the shows opening time and not before. How much are Virtual Tickets? You do not pay for the Virtual Tickets they are free. You pay per autograph when you come back and join the "real" queue. Can I get a Virtual Ticket for a friend? No, Virtual Tickets are given out ONE PER PERSON, you will only be given one ticket. If you want to get a ticket for a friend there is nothing stopping you from joining the queue again and getting another ticket Just remember it will only be one ticket for each time you queue up. If I get a Virtual Ticket for a guest and don't get to see them can I use it the next day? No, Virtual Tickets are only valid on the day you are given them. ***************************************************************************** 2.4 - Seeing the guests: ***************************************************************************** Can I have a photo with a guest when I get an autograph and will the guests be doing personalisations? The simple answer is "normally YES" but there is no guarantee of getting either, see below for more info. Note: There is no extra charge for either. The norm is posed photos - the guest gets up and puts there arm around you. Sometimes there will be a member of the crew there to take the photo for you. If not ask someone in the queue behind you. If the guest is very busy a sign "No posed photos" will be put up at the end of the queue and behind the guest. You may take photos of the guest whilst they are signing your item but the guest will not pose with you for a shot. Sometimes there will be no photos. Again there will be a sign saying "No photos" at the end of the queue and behind the guest. This means no photos including from the queue. This can be because of time, but more likely at the request of the guest. As a norm guests do personalisations (i.e. add your name or a quote). However again sometimes it is necessary for there to be no personalisations. Due to the guest being busy etc. If for any reason a guest is not doing personalisations there will be a sign up at the end of their queue and behind them at the signing desk. The signs (photo and personalisations) can and do change thoughout the day, so do check for the signs when you go up to get your autograph, as they may have changed since you got your VT. Please do remember that the signs are there for a reason, don't try and ignore them because the crew will have to intervene and it can get very embarrassing for all (especially the guest). If you know you're going to want items personalised it's a really good idea to bring a piece of paper with your name clearly written/printed on it. This way you can give it to the guest and there is no chance of spelling mistakes. Can I go up with my friend/partner/child to see the guest, I'm not getting an autograph? The answer is yes. But please be aware that if it is not an open queue you WILL need your own VT. Without a VT you will not be allowed to join the queue with your friend/partner/child. They are free so please make sure you take one when your friend/partner does. This does also apply to adults accompanying children. Can I see a guest without paying for an autograph? Note: This applies to both having a chat or just taking a photo! Firstly the best thing to do is (as above) to go up with someone that is getting an autograph. Please be aware that if it's not an open queue you will need your own VT to join the queue. If you don't have someone who's getting an autograph to go up with, then the follow guide lines apply: For guests with a separate photo table, as long as they have no queue, please go and ask the member of crew at the end of the queue, or on the photo table. The crew will be able to tell you at the time if it's OK for you to go and speak to the guest. For minor guests without a separate photo table feel free to chat to the guest, but again only if there is no queue. Three things to remember if you're going up without someone buying an autograph: 1: Paying customers have priority, so if you're talking to a guest and a paying customer arrives you should move along straight away. 2: Virtual Tickets are for people wanting autographs, please don't take them if you just want to meet the guest. Even with a VT you will not be allowed into the queue without paying for an autograph. As I've said above if there is NO queue then you can ask if it's OK. 3: The show is there to make money, it's how we get such good guests in the first place. So do not take it personally if the crew says no. There can be reasons that are not obvious to you as to why they've had to say no. What should I say to a guest and how should I act? The main thing to remember is THEY ARE ONLY HUMAN. Yes they've been on TV or in a film but they're no different to you or I. What would you say to someone you meet in the pub? Just be yourself. So a good start is: Hi, I'm YOUR NAME. It's nice to meet you, how are you today? Not a good start: Wibble...*stare*...*giggle*...*run* How friendly you can or should be with the guests is obviously a personal thing to both you and the guest. Like with anyone you meet you can normally gauge if someone is going to like personal interaction or not. Just use your common sense. If the guest looks happy and bouncy and you want to hug or kiss the guest. Ask nicely and maybe you'll be lucky. Pretty much all the guests are happy to shake your hand, so just put it out there You may have a specific question you want to ask. Just ask it. If not, you can always use the old tried and tested ones: What are you working on at the moment? Did you enjoy working on xxxxxx? Do you keep in touch with anyone from xxxxxx? What's your favourite episode/scene from xxxxxx? Do you enjoy doing events like this? If they're from the US - How do the UK events compare to the US ones? If you hadn't guessed you may want to replace xxxxxx with the name of the film or program you liked them in Can I give a guest a present? There is no problem with giving gifts. Please do be aware that the guests rarely take these things with them when they leave. Basically don't waste your money on anything too expensive. Either go for something they may like to eat or drink (sweets, chocolate, beer, but not home made things as they're unlikely to eat them as they won't know what's in them). Or give them something different and personal. I know one girl on here that gives people vegetables. Sounds odd but they remember her and that's the point really, you want them to remember you from the crowd. Trust me you'll get the same positive reaction out of a £1 bag of sweets or a 4 pack of beer as you will out of a £10 generic teddy bear and they're more likely to enjoy the sweets, than to take the bear home. ***************************************************************************** 2.4 - Miscellaneous Info: ***************************************************************************** Is there a cloakroom/place to store bags? Yes, the venue runs such facilities. Please follow the signs. One of the rooms is on the first floor near the elevators. The usual charge is 1 Pound per item, 2 Pounds for larger items. I have a weekend ticket. Do I have to get my ticket checked daily? No, wristbands are being handed out the first time you enter. Just show your wristband for entry on the other days. I can't attend. Can I still obtain autographs? Yes! Just visit the Website http://www.showmasterssales.com for the official preorder Service.

  41. 1 - BEFORE THE SHOW: It's my first LFCC I have no idea what I should do...HELP? The main thing is don't be too worried and don't panic. Some people see 15-25 guests in a day. Yes there are queues but if you're sensible about it you will see everyone you want to. You just need to make sure you get there at a reasonable time if you want to see any of the big stars. The basic plan: 1: Make a list of who you want to see from the LFCC website 2: Sort that list on who you think will be the busiest. So most popular first. You may have someone that's not so popular but you REALLY want to meet so you bump them up the list. It's also a good idea to try and group guests from the same film/series together as they will very likely be sat next to each other. 3: Try and get to the Show for the opening time. And an hour before the opening time if you have 3 or 4 big names on your list. 4: Once you get in, don't look at the stalls. Go straight to the ends of the queues in the order on your list and get the Virtual Tickets (VTs are explained below). Note: With some minor guests they won't have VTs. Don't worry about this it's because they won't have much of a queue all day. You can come back at anytime to get them. 5: Go buy any extra photo shoots or paid for talk tickets you need. 6: Once you have VTs for everyone you want, your photo shoot tickets you can then relax, walk around the stalls and get a coffee. 7: Wait for your VT numbers to come up. When they do, go get those autos Note: If you know you're going to want items personalised it's a really good idea to bring a piece of paper with your name clearly written/printed on it. This way you can give it to the guest and there is no chance of spelling mistakes. Note: As a lot of the guests are £15 SM run out of £5 notes very quickly. So it's always very helpful if you bring along as many £5s as you can. Note: Some guests will have talks and obviously this means they will have less time for signing, also you don't want to turn up when they've gone for their talk. So do check to see if a guest is doing a talk (Of course you may want to go to it). ***************************************************************************** 1.1 - Show Info: ***************************************************************************** When is it? 27th-29th July 2018 What are the opening times?

  42. That's the one I was referring to. The numbers change over the years. 2014 it may have been 30, but I think 2016 it were the 5 smithy mentioned. The decreasing the price is brought pretty much after every event when the selection of guests covered doesn't really match the interest of an attendee. But SM have decided against it as you see.

  44. For me in my opinion it's, Halloween 1978 Halloween 2 1981 Halloween 4 Halloween H20 Halloween 5 Halloween 6 Halloween Resurrection I love Halloween 3 Season Of The Witch but that film is it's own entity :) I basically enjoy every Halloween movie no matter how bad some are, i still have a good time with them even the remakes, but the first movie is a great film and a horror classic that will truly live on for ever. One of Carpenters best.
