  1. Every time I see your list I have to like it. Most of these are top of my list.
  2. Well I did meet her but had the opposite experience. She didn’t seem like she wanted to be there and barely spoke.
  3. For me it's always guest dependant. If there are any guests that either I or my brother really want to see then we'll make the 3 hour journey.
  4. I wouldn't say regret as such, but Christopher Lloyd. It's my own fault as I didn't have a Diamond pass (didn't realize how busy he'd be, stupidly.) I'll know for next time.
  5. For me it would have to be Christopher Lloyd. I would even go so far as to get a Diamond Pass this time since I missed his autograph.
  6. True but then I might get to meet Wil Wheaton (I know a little selfish on my part.....)
  7. Or maybe Stand By Me? Just a thought. Although I do like the idea of a Ferris one.
  8. The problem with reviews is that they are all personal opinions. I've seem many people complaining how busy it was and how crowded and that they weren't able to get around and yet my brother and I were there for both Saturday and Sunday and didn't have many issues, was able to go to every level without getting stuck etc. Plus I've found that like most places on the internet, the negative feedback seems to be more vocal than the positive feedback. People are quicker to complain that praise in general.
  9. All I am going to say is that I would have loved to have gotten Christopher Lloyd's autograph but since I didn't have a Diamond pass it was understandable when I didn't. All the way through SM have said that the only way to guarantee an autograph was with Diamond, and if I'm honest, I wouldn't have bothered giving out VQ tickets until after all the Diamonds had gone through. At least that way there would be no false hope.
  10. Well for me, Tim Russ was also not bothered at all. He was chatting with his helper when I got to his desk and while she was trying to get me included in the conversation and get my autograph sorted, Tim just wanted to carry on talking to her and barely acknowledged I was there. I has to ask him afterwards to personalize it for me. For me, he was the one that really put me off. So much so that I wasn't too worried about missing the Voyager talk on Sunday. Clifton Collins Jr on the other hand seemed to be on something when I met him Saturday. He was openly swearing quite loudly and seemed like he was either drunk or high. When he was signing my picture, he was concentrating very hard, almost like he didn’t know what he was doing. Was very strange (especially at 11am on Saturday.) I will say though that my highlights were James Tolkan (I had brought my own Masters Of The Universe picture,) Lea Thompson (I had brought the Caroline In The City DVD boxset) and Kelly Hu (I had brought my own Warehouse 13 picture.) All 3 were genuinely happy with what I wanted signing and that I had made an effort to bring something that was different. The only real thing that I was slightly disappointed with (and it was my own fault) was David Bradley had ran out of Dr Who pictures. This was at 5.30pm on Saturday so kind of understandable. I did get one from The Strain signed instead. I did like that show though so not too worried.
  11. Well that's my 2nd cancellation. At least I still have 15 other autographs to get. My bother now has more guests to see than me. That's nearly unheard of.
  12. We're staying at the Kensington Suite Hotel. Reviews aren't too bad and as people have said, it's only a place to put our heads down. Plus breakfast is included and it worked out at £90 for my bro and me on Saturday night. We did book it a little late though.
  13. Well I have my printed pictures I want signed, all the tickets (entry, photos, talk and train) and outfits sorted. Just need to worry about food and I'm sorted. Not sure my brother is anywhere near as organized though...... Good job I'm in charge of the tickets and most of the planning.
  14. Boring for me. I've a Star Trek Animated Series t-shirt for one day and a He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe t-shirt for other. Just need to make sure I meet James Tolkan when I'm wearing the He-Man one....
  15. My first cancellation as well. Still have 16 autographs to get so not the end of the world...... Just
  16. Yesterday my complete Caroline In The City dvd box set arrived for Lea Thompson to sign. I've printed out my own pictures for Jonathan Pryce / Dr Who, James Tolkan / Masters Of The Universe and Kelly Hu / Warehouse 13 to sign. The rest of my list will hopefully have relevant 10 x 8" available.
  17. From Shrewsbury, Shropshire with my brother. Catching the 5.20am train Saturday morning. Gonna be a long weekend but worth it.
  18. Now I'm even more interested to see. Will try and wait patiently for the announcement.....
  19. Glad I'm going both days..... Now just need to raise the money..... Take care, Matty-lad
  20. Wow, a Space Precinct guest. My brother is going to be out of money..... Take care, Matty-lad
  21. Wasn't sure about adding Jonathan to my list but then remembered he played The Master in the Comic Relief Dr Who spoof....
  22. oh mine too! Mine three I'll make it number four then.......
  23. Not sure we'd ever know. Since the majority of it was free, only a few tickets were sold to judge by. Take care, Matty-lad
  24. Wow, didn't know he was in Power Rangers. My brother will be happy. Take care, Matty-lad
