Did you check out "The Next Generation" event held at the Royal Albert Hall - Feb 2005? The entire cast were onstage [alone] for 1 hour each and it was amazing! Brent Spiner is at most the best [and most popular] guest you could ever ask for, he is entertainingly funny from start to end. Dawn

Christopher Lee - a rip off!!? He's a legend you should expect to pay that for an autograph from him since they are rare unless you can get to meet the guy himself. How often can that be!? I think Showmasters should not be ripped to shreds over this either, it isn't fair. It wasn't them who cancelled him and they are the people who brings in the good guests over all. Dawn

As someone already pointed out the forum had been shut down for a few days therefore it is not possible to make such an announcement earlier. Too bad that people have already made travelling arrangements etc. Showmasters are not to blame for this and I know they will make up for it asap I can't think of a better organisation than them at this point. Since I couldn't make this weekend show I've always wanted to meet Mr Lee so I am sort of hoping that he will make it to the show I will beable to attend in the future. Despite the cancellation, keep up the good work Showmasters. Dawn

WAY TO GO!!!!!!!! Showmasters. The only snag I can't get there due to work and it has always been my dream to meet Christopher Lee next to Sir Ian McKellen [who I've now met]. Oh well... hopefully there is another chance soon that he will return, yes? Dawn

Definately Brent Spiner..... Also, Patrick Stewart David Wenham Bruce Hopkins John Noble Lawrence Makoare Thanks and thanks again..... Dawn

Thankyou!!!! Showmasters.... I had a fabulous time last weekend, GMEX is a great place even better situated in the heart of the city. I will look out for the next announcements. Hugs Dawn

I am just dropping by to say that the photos you've all put up are absolutely brilliant, thankyou for allowing the rest of us to view them. I also want to thank Stuart and Showmasters for putting on yet another brilliant show and allowing excellent guest line up. My friends and I had a wonderful time and a very good weekend, Manchester is a fabulous city! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou.... Dawn

Brent Spiner Patrick Stewart Jonathan Frakes Bruce Hopkins Paul Norell John Noble David Wenham Lawrence MaKoare would be nice.....

Glad to see you back Showmasters. Regarding the later posted tix, well....mine got here today [i ordered them a week 1/2 ago], so if anyone hasn't received them yet no doubt they'll turn up by Thursday. Hugs Dawn

Neither can I! I just had the car a good thorough checking whilst it was being fully seriviced and MoTd [well I am coming all the way from Worcester] and everything looks ok there. And, better still my weekend off has just been confirmed so I am sooooo can't wait, I could do with a good girlie getaway. Dawn

Lol! Apparently when mine arrived they were just posted and a sig was not needed which I thought was odd for Recorded mail. Well.... if that's the case at least you still have your order number for the day incase they do get lost. I always make sure I have a print out. Dawn

Thanks, I got standard tickets I had ordered earlier today but this means my 'Early bird' order made yesterday will arrive fairly the same time next week? Looking forward to it. warm wishes Dawn

Take a look >>HERE<< and you'll see there are a lot of people that disagree it's not a good show. 916047[/snapback] <Sigh:> I don't suppose everyone can be happy it's virtually impossible but then overall [including the other shows lined up] it's quite a year for SM and I think GMEX would be a great show. Dawn

Premier Travel Lodge is like £28 per person per night, so not that different really.....however, if you have a car they do not charge for parking like most city centre Manchester hotels and you have to pay for breakfast on top too (£6) - swings and roundabouts hey..... 912302[/snapback] I suppose paying £35 pppn in Manchester isn't as bad as I'd expected. However, I have now heard that the Princess is apparently full. Someone has now suggested the Ibis Hotel. Dawn

No but I have booked a room at the Princess on Portland Hotel which is merely a pebble throw from the GMEX Centre. The only snag is they expect payment immediately on booking but are relatively cheap at £35 pppn, I am paying £140.00 for 2 people both nights. If anyone is interested here you are The Princess on Portland Hotel in Manchester UK 101 Portland Street Manchester Tel: 0161 2365122 www.princessonportland.co.uk Dawn
