  1. I want to thank the guy in glasses with his hair tied back who was working at the second stage talks on Sunday. He playfully teased my friend and I (mainly me, lol!) whenever we turned up (we had a few we wanted to see), and he certainly made even more highlights of the weekend, due to us laughing! 

  2. I have a few.

    Asking John Carroll Lynch his most memorable moment as Twisty the Clown, and he said shooting one particular scene at 3:30am, he needed to drop to the floor.. he was so tired he fell asleep the second he landed! Also my friend who wasn't sure who he was to begin with, wanted an autograph herself by the end of the weekend, so please bring him back soon Showmasters!

    Demolition: the guys were just so unbelievably nice! 

    The crew member with his hair tied back working at the talks Sunday, and his playful teasing of my friend and I (mainly me!), such a brilliant, funny guy and definitely added to the weekend highlights!

  3. Simply due to the massive queue that seemed to spring up on Sunday! My friend was hoping for an autograph, so during our wait (I was her carer and we weren't far back), Richard saw the size of his queue and personally went along all those waiting to apologise and promised he would get to everyone eventually. A wonderful guest! VQ for his next attendance, possibly?

  4. Absolutely loved those guys! I met them on behalf of my wrestling-obsessed Mother (who couldn't attend due to age and health), and they asked after her, etc. They were such sweet guys, and I could easily have just stayed and chatted with them for ages had I had the opportunity! I wanted to return to them later in the weekend for my own autograph, but being so busy I never got the chance. They gained a new fan that day (and coming from someone who is not a wrestling fan, that's saying something!), hope Showmasters brings them back someday.

    My list

    Demolition (on behalf of my wrestling-obsessed mother, but were such lovely guys, I ended up wanting to see them again later in the weekend... didn't happen, sadly)

    Lalla Ward

    Sean Biggerstaff (one of my favourites of the weekend)

  6. I've certainly become far more confident and comfortable as myself because of these things and the people I've met :)

    Me too, I used to be pretty quiet/shy, wouldn't really speak to anyone unless they befriended me first. Going to my first convention back in 2003 (thanks SM!), I knew I'd need to at least say something to the guests I would meet. From that point on, it got easier all the time, and I'm a lot more confident these days (apart from the odd moment, lol!). :)

  7. I'd be curious to know how many extra fans met him this year (since being in Doctor Who) compared to when he was at EMS in 2011.

     

    Doctor Who was one of the reasons I met him, but he's been in so many things I love, and considering I missed him last time, I insisted he would be top of my list this time. He'll stay at the top of my list too, ready for him to (hopefully) come back again. :thumbup:

  8. I think the idea of set times for dealers getting things signed is great, but I think there perhaps should be say, half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the afternoon during which they can get things signed, limited to 5 per dealer, and outside these 30min gaps, there should be signs up saying "no dealers until *time*". The rest of the day's signings (amongst photos, talks etc) given to the fans as per usual.

    Hi Guys,

     

    I was the guy dressed as Emmet from The Lego Movie. I was constantly stopped and asked for photos and I thank everyone for all their kind words about the costume, even after I told them I didn't make the head myself ;)

     

     

    My sister had a photo with you, she's not in to marvel, star wars and game of thrones so she was very happy to see Emmet and really liked the photo.

    I only got one shot of you, loved the costume a great idea!

    Lol, you got my elbow in this (stripy shirt)! :)

  10. Hi

     

    Did anyone take any pictures of George Romero at his signing table on Saturday? I know he wasn't doing any posed photo's but if anyone has any of him on his own at the table it would be great to see them.

     

    I had some original film posters that he signed for me and it was the highlight of my day to meet him :)

     

    Thanks

     

    Rob

  11. What was the deal with his big moustache? I'm guessing it was for a part but what?

     

    No, he's had it for a while now, occasionally grows a full, big beard too. :smile:

     

     

    I loved him myself, I've retired myself from these events for a while, but if he's confirmed to appear again, I'll come back! :thumbup::whistling:
