    Would there be a 2nd Sherlocked event?

    I sat down next to a bit of a weird chap for the screening who was essentially saying the same thing and more. He was saying that he was here to see what else was on offer and saying to me that SM were putting the whole thing on as a money scam and were fleecing us ect, because there weren't enough additional activities. He didn't want to listen to me when I tried to explain it and even told him we were really lucky with this event - we had the main production crew and Arwel and Danny. As far as I can recall it's pretty rare to get to see the people involved with that side of the show and I really appreciate them being there this weekend. He didn't even seem particularly interested in either Sherlock or the actors individualy so I've no idea why he was there. He went off on a rant about Ben's privilaged background and how his life and career was essentially handed to him on a plate. Strange chap......

     

    Ah jeez, I think I was sitting right behind you and that chap during the screening, and I heard him say about 73 times "My point is…" and all I could think was ´my that guy likes to hear himself talking`, going on and on about "Oh Ben had so much help in his life with his parents being actors and his privileged background…" as if that would diminish BC's extraordinary talent or anything. Ah well, to each their own, but this really makes you wonder why he was there in the first place… Poor you! :)

     

    Anyway, I enjoyed every minute of Sherlocked, but I must admit it was also rather exhausting…;-) And yes, I'd love to see Ben and Marting together on stage somewhere down the road, so yay for a second con which Martin would be willing to attend. :)

    Oh what a wonderfully exciting event! I think it will take some time for all the little details and puzzle pieces to sink in as it was an overwhelming experience for mind and body alike.



    There were so many highlights, one of them of course meeting Benedict. Naturally, his photo shoot as well as the autograph session felt a bit rushed as some of you already pointed out, but let's be honest it was to be expected and it didn't take away from the overall fantastic experience. I got a nice autograph and a laser-beam smile (geez he does have big hands and extraordinary eyes - great seeing those face to face..;-), then I got a beautiful picture, a "nice to meet you" and a gentle pat on the shoulder. What more do you need? He was his usual articulate self during the talk and it was a delight listening to him.



    Andrew was super friendly and welcoming, very nice and cordial, Mark and Steven were great together, witty and eloquent. Rupert was a riot, and Loo taking the time to hug and talk to everyone was amazing. Una is a wonderful wonderful, charming lady.


    All the guests were very welcoming and generous and it was fantastic for them to come to such an event considering the fact that they all are busy bees (especially Benedict who could easily have moved on meanwhile and do something else in his spare time); they spent their weekend with us and were just SPLENDID company!



    There surely are a thousand things I failed to mention, but I'll stop for now and reminisce some more about a wonderful and unforgettable experience….. :coolthumb:

    Thanks Queen_Sindel for the fast reply.

    Apologizes for not asking clear enough, no matter if English or German :)

    I'll give it another try... Are all main talks included in gold tickets or just some?

     

    As ericsdonor said: If it is a multi panel is that included as well, or not?

     

    Additionally from my side: "A ticket with each guest" sounds like one talk ticket for one guest. If e.g. Ben is doing 2 main talks I understand I have to buy another talk ticket.

     

    Same question here more or less… :WAVE: I have a platinum ticket - does that mean that all the guest talks whenever and whereever they might take place are covered or do I have to buy some extra tickets? Thanks very much! :D
