This is... awesome.

It's on ITV2 today

That is a pretty massive guest announcement!

1 minute!

More guests, more of the high profile guests. People will pay the extra (well I would anyway if someone like Andrew Lincoln or Matthew Fox were guests). I think people choose to moan because the announcements are last-minute, but we all understand that the bigger guests HAVE to be announced last minute. In an ideal world, I would say get as many guests as possible months before the event, but obviously this can't always be possible. Also there are never, ever too many headline guests. The more, the merrier...

Wow it's Desmond! He doesn't do many signings and I don't think he does a lot of fanmail either, so this is a rare opportunity for all Lost fans. *Goes to find Lost season 1 and watch it all again*

Wow, did anyone see him on 'Happy Birthday ET' last weekend? Amazing story, and an amazing guest!

Amazing Heroes and Star Wars, I love the Star Wars theme

Yes! Very happy!

Even if you only got some of the minor tributes or characters, I (and I think a LOT of others) would be there

Evangeline would be a massive guest, not only for Lost but for The Hobbit and the Hurt Locker. I would have to save up so much for various autographs haha

I've got a good feeling about this, Disney's takeovers of Pixar and Marvel have done really well and as long as Lucas is only having a consulting role in the new films then that can only be a good thing. Also, Star Wars couldn't end on the disappointment of the prequel trilogy, the brand needed a rest and come back rejuvenated with new people to oversee the future films. Yes,you could definitely argue that its a money-making, cynical move from George Lucas, but I'm pretty sure we're all secretly happy about the prospect of new Star Wars films...

Thats really good

Please can someone from Showmasters (or one of the moderators) please confirm whether this is the case? Thanks

The traditional 'who are you thinking of getting autographs/photoshoots from' thread. This is going to be my most relaxed con in ages, partly due to the number of cancellations. I'll write up my list of people when I get the chance. So yeah, who are you planning to meet at EMS?

Not another one of my wanted guests cancelling. Hmm I'm really thinking now whether or not to go this weekend, but I understand the cancellations are out of your hands.

Same here although you can get a few awkward looks lol Hahah glad I'm not the only one, though half day on Saturday I might struggle to do blood tests due to being in a cat suit that has gloves attached but luckily only wearing it for half a day. And ouch 3am start!! Wow, I'm always so paranoid about my blood sugar levels I'm always testing but Cosplay Definitely comes 1st haha. Hope you have a good (and hopefully low blood sugar-less) day

You'll be fine I'm Tye 1 as well, there are plenty of toilets in the venue Same here although you can get a few awkward looks lol

Brilliant, GoT guests are more than welcome. Pleease don't cancel, pleeease

Very good guest but £35 for an autograph without a personalisation... hmm I'll think about it. But really good guest :)

Thank goodness for that, we could really do with a 'Gilian Anderson' type of star guest (or 2). Looking forward to forum-mania tomorrow

His photoshoot is confirmed as £15 so it's a pretty good bet that the auto will be the same price :)

Hope there are more guest announcements soon-ish, but good to see that his character Is back for the 3rd season of GoT

Still not working. If it's not working soon (ie. by the end of the weekend) then the event could suffer slightly because the website is the main source of advertising and newcomers won't know about the event. Lets hope its fixed soon-ish

It's quite an unfortunate time for the site to go down with a few weeks till the event. Hope Showmasters gets this fixed sooner rather than later.
