I was the same when I was looking for Cary Nord to get my comic signed, had to ask the lovely Showmasters staff there on their location and for the BTTF photoshoot too.
The BTTF photo was a tiny bit poor in my opinion, I was expecting maybe a background or more props, am I asking too much there haha? The lock was great but I was left wanting more, I'm guessing that's why it was a bit quiet?

I was genuinely shocked when they said that to me. For a split second I thought I wasn't going to be allowed in!

Hi,
Just a post to say a massive well done to everyone at Showmasters for providing a good, quality Film & Comic Con for the second year in a row.
This year ran a lot more smoothly I felt and the space was much better managed, I didn't feel as claustrophobic as last year. The stores were amazingly brilliant this year (my wallet took a massive hit) and, although there were a few who grumbled, the guests were fantastic and delighted that I had my book signed by all the Game of Throne guests - James Cosmos is a gent by the way!
The talks I attended were brilliant, especially the Game of Thrones one, I never stopped laughing from their anecdotes, even when they answered my question.
I should also say a huge, huge, HUGE thank you to the staff as well, they were so friendly and offered to help as much as they could especially with one bit. I left the arena and completely forgot that I had a James Cosmos photo shoot to attend, they allowed me to explain myself, dealt with the problem accordingly with supervisors and so kindly let me go back to get my picture taken, I'm so grateful for that.
The only problem that bothered me, was as I was entering the building with the security staff that were checking bags. I had my over-shoulder bag looked at (no problems with that whatsoever) and had my tablet device taken out and told that "These are not allowed inside the venue" and the person even was looking to confiscate it! Thankfully, I was allowed in after a couple of minutes, but was totally unaware that tablets were prohibited, even though I used mine last year and seen numerous fans using theirs and video cameras, did any one else experience this?
Some of the costumes that were there were superb by the way, There was a Captain America (Winter Soldier) with an actual adamantium-looking shield, wish I got my photo taken with it! Well done to everyone who dressed up, you all looked awesome!
Already looking forward to next year, if it goes ahead of course.
Keep up the great work guys!

Afternoon!
Not sure if it has already been answered but just wondering if there is a timetable of the different photo shoots has been announced or posted?
Just so I can work my day around the schedules so I don't miss anything!
Can't wait for it!

There's not a lot I would improve on, but here are a couple of things that, if added, would easily make this event a massive annual encounter for Newcastle.
Other than that, I can't think of anything else, it was much better organised than last year and it was 10x better in terms of stores (the quirky CBM slogan t shirts near the guest talks area was my favourite) for shopping.
