Also going back to the Warwick Davis Discussion his wife has just passed away I’m assuming that’s any event appearances out of the question for the indefinite future
Bless him. My heart goes out to him and his family

All good no harm done, the only person I’m never getting on the set (whose still alive) is of course Noel Clarke for reasons of an obvious nature.
I wouldn't even have made a joke about getting him on it. I know some people would quite happily add him to the boxset, but not myself
I have him on a couple of items, but that was way before everything came out

Andrew did a signing last year with Fantom thats how i got him on my Series 2 you must have missed that one i think it was August that he appeared.
That one must have passed me by completely.
I mis-read your post as you would consider getting him on the boxset. Sorry -

Yeah i'm hoping the same for Wendy.
the problem is that of course that with her being replaced by the Likes of Derek Martin for example is his line up of opportunity is more diverse, and thus i have a wider pool to chose from making choice more difficult, but within budget i have Lost in time & Season 15 as there are 5 other guests from that season alone, so i'm gonna guess they're all gonna be on the same half together.
as for booking John Leeson, i'm keeping it simple with Season 15 and The Davros Collection even if he's not K9 in the latter it still helps to start off strong on the bat with two names, and if i had an extra £15 i would bring Series 2 for what would move up as one of my best combos of names IE David Tennant and 4 companions (even if only 1 is actually a companion in said series, 1 makes a mere single episode appearance and 2 are more regulars than anything else, and by this point i should consider Jake's actor Andrew Hayden Smith a companion as well making 5 if you think about it, but basically some strong main players).
either way i'm gonna be doing some great combo work, 2 more names for Lost in Time making a total of 29 names, Season 15 will bounce to a strong 7 names with 2/3 of the main cast, Series 7 will have 16 names, "The Invasion of Time" will bounce to a good 7 Names, the same with Series 1, so all in all i will be getting some strong combos this time.
Same logic as getting John on my Rembrance DVD, as he is the Dalek Battle Computer, I have re sent this in as cant make this show. So fingers crossed 2nd times the charm.
It is nice that they are getting as many of season 15 as they can, which even extends into next months line up as well
I'm also sending in my Greatest Show DVD covers for another event, which will bring that on up to 12 signatures on my main one and 7 on the other, and baring Ricco Ross ever making an appearance this side of the pond the main one will be as complete as it will ever be.
I'm surprised we haven't seen Andrew Hayden Smith at any events, I dont even know if he has done any in the past or not. But he would be a welcome addition
-
My budget is similar, I have two events early next month and supposed to go to one in Wales at end of month. Fortunatly enough, by pure chance, the one autograph I would have wanted from that convention, is now at LFCC, so I dont have to worry about a 6/7 hour round trip

Yeah one thing that does worry me is so has Wendy Gifford and given her age that is something i am now worried about, but given they've rebooked the two who couldn't make it last month is a good start, however because of my budget i cant get too many more things signed.
That is exactly my sentiment, I'm glad they re-booked as it means they are ok, and that they confirmed it was nothing more serious than moving house for Christopher Robbie, as at their age it is concerning. I have him on one poster, so I was in two minds about sending the other.
I hadn't seen Wendy Gifford had withdrawn either, hopefully she is ok
-
And John Leeson is joining him, also a good sign that he has recovered. Christopher Robbie has pulled out though. Although, this is nothing to worry about, as he's just moving house
-
I see Derek Martin has also been re-scheduled after his recent illness. Which, as he's back doing shows is a good thing.

So I saw Warwick Davis has been announced for somewhere so what are the chances we may see him in this neck of the woods sometime soon?
cause he would be a big draw for a number of reasons and I could do with him on my Series 7 for a good number of reasons
If you are going to this one, pre-book the autograph, as at least then he cant jack the price up on the day.
Which would probably rule out Showmasters, as they wouldn't stand for that type of stunt

The way i see it is when you have so many newspapers and tabloids saying you’ve already been replaced so quickly into your tenure on the show might be draining and someone from the production team saying you’re important to the show doesn’t always mean that you’re still gonna be on it, im guessing they decided they had to announce a lot sooner than they would have liked that she is staying and that they’ll be joined by someone else on Series 15.
I think the issue I have now is the same I have with Companions who aren’t big finish exclusives, I now know that Ruby isn’t gonna be killed off in series 14 and that no matter how intense a cliffhanger she’s gonna be fine next week.
i do hate modern journalism, I would love to have been able to watch “the war games” during broadcast given the cliffhangers to episodes 1,4&5 are some of the best of the show and given everyone knew they were leaving they played into said expectation
I agree completely, no matter how high the stakes are as to whether she'll survive or not, they've lost that element of surprise, unless of course you have avoided all spoilers. But this is partly their own fault for filming the two series back to back and the press constant need for spoilers and headlines
Had they spaced out the filming there would have been less chance of spoilers like this happening and they could have revealed the new companion after the series finished airing.
Hopefully she was given the support she needed behind the scenes

It is beginning to annoy me that they’re giving so much away from the next two series IE that series 15 will have a second companion, maybe the leaks about Millie being replaced so soon we’re getting too much and they had to quash said rumours of only for her mental health.
It could also be this is the first time all three were in the same place at the same time so first time they could get a photo of all of them together. As wasnt Millie on holiday when the rumours came out.
But still all it would have taken was someone on the production team to come out and say shes still an important part of the team when it all kicked off to quash the rumours
-
Coming back to a previous topic of conversation, it was good to see the new publicity photos including Millie as well as Verada Sethu, although still a bit wierd they are advertising the new series before the current one has aired

I think it’ll be some time before ever are landed at an LFCC, problem is I’m more worried about some of the older guests and rn as speculated they’re focusing on Collectermania atm, so we’re unlikely gonna see anything for LFCC at this time.
also I just realised how much I want Andrew Cartmel to be announced again as I have the Davros Collection now and I could do with getting his name attached to the set
Collectormania is just round the corner, and whilst the venue isnt large, we are thin on the numbers for guests, so it makes sense to concentrate on this event. Doesnt mean they wont announce guests for LFCC as well. But I think once Collectormania is out of the way, then it will be full steam ahead

If they did it would be a great stall to have cause imagine the stock and they may even offer signed copies as an incentive and if Nick Briggs came they’d likely bring Jason Ellory amongst who knows else maybe John Dorney
Which they have done before, such as the 50th anniversary festival at the Excel, but I dont think they've done this for LFCC. But it would be a great marketing idea, and way to clear stock

Talking of Dalek/Davros operators. Dave Gooderson is now coming to Collectormania. Hes there on the Sunday and is £15

Well the likes of Bonnie Langford, Wendy Padbury and John Leeson have moved up the list of who i need again, as i've picked up the Davros Collection and now and need them on said set, although i need to look over the set and work out how much signing space i'll have for everyone and if i need to prioritise certain names over others, IE Regulars and such.
and before anyone says Padbury isn't in a Davros Story, she plays a new character in "Davros" which is apart of said set, i doubt i'll ever use said Big Finish disc because i like having the individual copies and the only new one "Terra Firma" i can't even listen to because i haven't listened to Entries 61-64 of the main range, let alone own them, which comes down to the 8th Doctor stories of that era being more directly linked than other Doctors, made that mistake with one of my first two stories being "Zagreaus".
also also Showmasters Get Alistair lock again he did Dalek Voices for Big finish, just saying would be amazing.
Any of the dalek operators would be a nice addition, new series or classic. Nick Briggs would be an amazing guest if he attended. Maybe make him an offer he cant refuse on a stall at the show for Big Finish. Bring some of the guest actors and writers along

And it’s good you’ve got Reg Whitehead as well, I wasn’t on an attempt to make you jealous I just didn’t want you to be annoyed if I got a 1960s Cyberman you didn’t, and even now if I include Kilgarriff and Levene I only have 4 of them myself, outside of that I have another 4 Cybermen but ones not on a Cyberman set as money was tight and I wanted Melville Jones on “the time monster” for that combo that was growing.
i have a Cyber voice actor in the form of Peter Haliday I can say that at least
I didnt think that was the case at all, I know he did a few conventions, but it would always be the ones i couldn't or didnt make, so i am lucky to have him.
As far as I'm aware, we only have Gregg Palmer, Michael Kilgariff, Barry Noble, Derek Chafer and John Levene from the 60's cybermen still with us.

Finally recieved my Tom Baker autograph. Came out perfect.

Again in update news i've booked my photos with Peter Purves, Maureen O'Brien (Both single and duo) and Garrick Hagon, with Matthew Needham coming next month in terms of Photo booking, so thats a total of 4 out of the 5 current photos booked.
and I checked the random announcement earlier of Ralph Brown and nada, he was in Alien 3 with Paul MgGann along with Danny Webb and Christopher Fairbank, but no Doctor who Credits for him.
Also as much as i hate Alien 3 i do like Brown's character in the film, and would say he's one of the better parts of it.
My budget for the month has been taken by booking the diamond pass for Ray Winstone, otherwise I would have booked the dual Peter and Maureen photoshoot

Well lads i have hit a gold mine, or should i say Tomb of silver giants.
i had a scroll through ebay and have replaced my cover of "The Tomb of the Cybermen" so now instead of Frazer Hines, Michael Killgarriff and Tim Combe i now have the following:
· Frazer Hines – Jamie McCrimmon
· Deborah Watling – Victoria Waterfield
· Clive Merrison – Jim Callum
· Bernard Holley - Hayden
· Reg Whitehead – Cyberman
· Roger Bunce – Camera Opperator
with plans to add the Cyber-controller (Again) later this month, meaning that i'm infact risking a loss of Timothy Combe on the set assuming he never appears anywhere again, but he was only on a bonus feature for "The Final End" as the director of said sequences, so my anxiety is mostly soothed at least in part as i have 3 other sets him his name attached.
and the best part is none of these are dedicated, sorry @Mfahey79 i've got a 1960's cybermen i'm unsure you have.
Quite the find, and quite the upgrade, especially being undedicated, at least worst case scenario he doesnt appear again, you have Tim on other sets
If we are talking about Reg Whitehead, I have him on one poster but not on another, he passed away before I could add him on the the one I get signed in person (apart from Melville Jones),
I got a really good deal, from an events company who offered a multi signed poster at a price that was hard to resist, especially as It had Reg along with 4 or 5 other actors I didn't have. Randomly they managed to get Paul Kennington to sign it twice. Hence having two cybermen posters running at same time
I am hoping Gregg Palmer, is ok and well enough to make an event this year, as he cancelled a couple towards the end of last year
I'm hoping Gregg Palmer is well enough and gets announced again, as he pulled out of an event last year
-
I think the early ones wernt, but they started putting batches on, and making them day specific the last few years or so
