Not only are a lot of U.K. guests being announced - but a lot of guests are only attending one day. there could be a logistical or financial reason behind that or perhaps guests Themselves are not keen to commit to the weekend

How do we define good ventilation though? I don’t think most of us that have attended Olympia at normal capacity would consider it well ventilated. the grand hall is basically a giant greenhouse

Some hope No masks but this does require attendees to have rapid flow test https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/04/30/clubbers-return-dancefloor-pilot-rave-event/amp/

I see that it’s now possible to buy/pre-order autographs from guests on the website (as in autographs at the event, not sendin preorders or those included with passes) - will there be an announcement soon about how this is going to work in practice? Are these autos going to be somehow guaranteed or work similar to VQ, will this be the only way to buy autos or will They be Available at the event aswell? How Will the priority work?

Another sad loss for 2021 - RIP Barbara Shelley. Perhaps best know for her work in Hammer horror but she also appeared as Sorasta in Doctor who story Planet of Fire as well as appearing in shows such as Blakes 7 and The Avengers. She was 88. www.indiemacuser.co.uk/2021/01/04/actress-barbara-shelley-hammer-horror-doctor-who-blakes-7-passes-away-aged-88/

That was not a one of, he was one of the rare guests that likes to stand out front the table...just the best. the documentary Elstree 1976 shows how serious Jeremy took attending conventions and he was a real pro

RIP to a legend and of the best guests to meet ever https://indiemacuser.co.uk/2020/12/17/star-wars-boba-fett-actor-dies/

This legend was a staple of our convention scene for so many years. RIP https://indiemacuser.co.uk/2020/11/29/original-star-wars-darth-vader-actor-dies/
