  1. I've photos booked with Danny Glover, Christopher Lambert, Richard Wilson, Frank Bruno, Kenny Johnson and Joseph Marcell. Looking to get autos from all of the above plus Billy Boyd, Sylvester McCoy, Mark Williams, Chad Coleman, Ray Park, Austin Emilio, Emily Kinney, Jordan Woods-Robinson, Michelle Ryan, Kristanna Loken, Donald Sumpter, Jeremy Bulloch and Valene Lane. All in one day!
  2. Thanks Raylenth, that's how I'm hoping it goes. I've got a lot to names to cram into a one day visit beginning with my first 2 photos clashing. But a pair of trainers and a good stretch before kick off should see me right .
  3. In terms of guests, are the big 2 shows like regional for when guests start signing? By that I mean my previous experience at Glasgow over the last few years is that guests generally start a good 30/60mins after 9am opening. I guess what I'm trying to ask is, are you able to go around and get VQ's (if in operation for a guest) for everyone you hope to see, before actually joining any queues?
  4. Well having gone from never having booked a photo before, to booking half a dozen, I better get my running shoes on. 2 clashes I can see already. Just makes the day more fun! Lol
  5. I'm so excited, I can't wait until 7pm!! Mostly so I can come online and blame Showmasters for ruining my life by them causing war, famine, disease & pestilence worldwide if it's not my dream guest that gets announced............... Alternatively maybe I'll just go "meh not for me" and figure out what I'm watching tonight on the telly.
  6. Stop doing this to me Showmasters, at this rate I'm going to have to think about selling my wife or my daughter to fund this trip lol
  7. Absolutely fantastic! Cannot wait to meet him! Just to point out I think his price here is wrong? Price on eventbrite is £20. Which makes sense for joint photo price. Still booked a photo tho ☺
  8. So far I've photos booked for : Danny Glover, Christopher Lambert, Charles Dance and Frank Bruno I'll be aiming for Billy Boyd, Mark Williams, Sylvester McCoy. No doubt there will be more added to the list to drain my bank balance.
  9. I am literally watching him give a speech in the walking dead and checked this at the same time! Awesome guest!
  10. Gutted he's Sunday only. Absolutely love him in Auf Wiedersehen Pet. Still brilliant guest!
  11. How long did it take you to get in once the doors were open?
  12. War for the Planet of the Apes - Fantastic addition to the series. It was so much more than the trailers led you to believe. Definitely one to get you right in the feels. Paddington 2 - Still can't get my head around how much I enjoyed this. On paper I should have hated it lol
  13. I don't think I've missed the announcement on being able to buy them. Is there such a thing as a normal length of time before the events that tickets are released? I know glasgow and London tickets are available already.
  14. Dunkirk. Went in thinking it might be a bit grim, but came out feeling sense of pride. Dispite a spitfire with magic powers lol.
  15. I can understand the disappointment of not having more guests,depending on what you class as big guests. Certainly the fewest I've experienced in the last 4 years. But I guess unless Showmasters have black mail material the wish to use against guests (I'm guessing this isn't the most feasible business model lol) to make them come, we'll just have to hope for more next year.
  16. I'll be honest I never went down the area where they usually go, however I did see a few tables down that section. Also the gent that does the "Saltire" comics had his stall.
  17. Home from another enjoyable con at Glasgow. We had early entry tickets and once again it was a good choice. Started with a quick nosey around to see where guests were seated. As expected this year it seemed quieter, I assume due to the smaller line up. I admit I was apprehensive about this year for this very reason. However I was so glad I went. I had a great laugh in the Retro Gaming area, struggling to remember combos to try and beat my friend at Street Fighter 2. I met Colette Hiller, Mark Rolston, Jeanette Goldstein as previously planned. All 3 of them were lovely and fantastic to talk too. Colette was a particular highlight taking pictures with everyone (at the time). I also decided on the day to meet Rusty Goffe. Based solely on finding out about his extensive CV. It was a great choice. He is a really nice, funny gentleman. Can't recommend highly enough how much I am so glad I did. I was a bit short for time today so didn't stay for the talks this year. My loss based on previous years. I sometimes think other forum users are too quick to complain about "crap" or lack lustre line ups etc. But it's horses for courses. What might not spark your interest, may be a hero for others etc. I for one am just glad that things like this event happen. Already looking forward to the next one. Hope everyone enjoys their weekend!
  18. Glasgow is a relatively compact layout. Main arena floor after you pass the first foyer area. All the stalls and stages are here. Auto's are generally done upstairs to the right dependent on guest numbers. With the line up this year I doubt VQ's will be used. But that's not to say they won't!
