Nothing, didn't get in. Just a fiver to get there.
-
Just bring back all the guests from this past weekend, minus Stan Lee, so the ones that missed out can get their chance.

A redundant point considering the staff told some that they were waiting for those advanced ticket holders who had not shown up yet. This easy to think of point is invalid.

I really want this to be a positive post
speedy2056 posted a topic in London Film and Comic Con 2014
but I can't think of anything positive, unfortunately. I was one of those waiting outside for five hours until I finally decided that I had had enough and turned around and went home. An assistant told us that they needed to wait for people with adv tickets that had not showed up. I don't think this is fair and a time limit needs to be put in place. I felt sorry for the people at the bottom of the queue. Were the ones waiting outside get in after I left? I was gone about 1.30pm after being there since 8.30. This was supposed to be only my second CC and after last year to say I was shocked is an understatement. I am not placing blame on anybody in particular as I don't know enough about the situation but I think its fair to say that things need to be worked on for the future. Oh, there is something positive out of this. I saved myself £250. -
Since you had KITT and The Hoff this year, why not William Daniels? He voiced the car in Knight Rider. I think he's been at a major convention here before but it would be good to have him back. I've not met him yet.

After being impressed with 'Bates Motel' I would also like to suggest Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore. From Knight Rider: Rebecca Holden (does many conventions) Peter Parros Justin Bruening (from KR 08) William Daniels (voice of KITT) Sports related: Roberto Duran Thomas Hearns Evander Holyfield Tommy Morrison (also starred in Rocky V and has said in my personal interview with him that he would love to do conventions if invited)

I did not know about his bad back, thanks for the information!

I travelled to CC to see Kristanna Loken and Danny Glover (cool-ish people) but ultimately for me it was The Hoff. He turned out to be a very down to earth guy for somebody whose celeb status has risen in Britain in recent years what with his appearances on BGT etc. I'm a lifelong Knight Rider fan and took 3 items to get signed and have a photo with him and KITT. It lived up to my expectations and more. He took the time to speak to me during signing my autographs and even talked to me right after my photo with him about the show he did last year at the 02 arena. As soon as he saw me he remembered my name (probably not difficult as I was most likely one of a few wheelchair users who saw him that day) from earlier. I felt a bit awkward because I knew there was a queue behind me waiting to have their turns and there he was just chatting away, but it was an awesome experience! I have met other Knight Rider actors in the past and I never thought the day would come when I would eventually meet him, so a big thank you to Comic Con for giving me the opportunity and I hope you invite him back! As for Glover and Loken, it was more Glover that was a little underwhelming. He looked a little bored and he slowly leaned up to shake my hand but he was a nice enough guy and thanked me for meeting him in his dedicated sig to me. Body language is important to me and it usually tells me a lot, but to be fair there wasn't anybody there seeing him when I approached him so I guess I can understand why. Loken was cool, my encounter with her was clinical and business like, nothing intimate or memorable but worth it all the same. But yeah, The Hoff is the king!

K.I.T.T, and The "Hoff" Photo Question
speedy2056 replied to phil_wilce's topic in London Film and Comic Con 2013
It will most certainly be a replica because all the KITT's were destroyed after filming. There is a rumour of an original KITT car still out there that was stolen from the set but that's all it is, a rumour. If you are asking whether it will be the actual car there instead of a "portion" then I can't help you, sorry, but I would imagine that a full version would be there. I've paid for a shoot, myself, and I would feel cheated financially if it was just a mock up of a door or something. -
I will be getting one, for sure, Stuntdawg! Saturday would have been more ideal for me to attend than Sunday but I'm sure I can make arrangements to make it that day.

I want to buy a ticket for this but noticed there is only one for Sunday. Is there no Saturday shoot?

Thank you for the replies. The phone numbers were very helpful!

Thanks for the reply. Do you have the number for any local taxi firms? If not, what about the hotel next door? Will they have a number for any taxis that I can call?

Hi, I am thinking of travelling down on Saturday and going back on the same day in the evening but I am wondering what transport will be available to go back to Bletchley station? I will also be going to the stadium from there. I am not sure if I can board any buses as I am wheelchair bound. Any help is appreciated.
