  1. Natalie Casey from Two Pints and Jaime Murray from Hustle would be my favourites to meet :)
  2. Its a 10 minute tube on the district line
  3. Look at single train fares on the National Express website, I'm positive it works out cheaper than petrol and parking would.
  4. Ah yes thank you, I forgot SM pre-sell photo shoots. The principle could be the same though the person, their card and that address could only get so many. But if it is a problem then the restriction on the sales would only serve as a gentle reminder to people that its only fair to get so many each, it wouldn't completely prevent it because as its been pointed out people could still get their friends to buy for them. The only way to stop people having more than a set amount would be to only accept that set amount in the photo room. That would create a new problem in dealing with those people who decided to get around the system though and get to the room with 10 tickets though. Like I say it depends on how big of a problem Showmasters perceive it to be in how they may or may not want to deal with it. There's the gentle approach which means relying on attendees to use common sense, or the iron fist rule which brings fairness but brings complaints from the other side.
  5. Its true that one person could get all their mates to go buy 3 for them, but at least a fair restriction was in place and each of those people had to queue just the same as everyone else. That alone would mean that people couldn't complain after the fact that they didn't have a fair chance at getting a ticket. If necessary you can take it one step further and the photo room wouldn't accept more that 3 or 4 for one person, so they may be able to get around the buying restriction but not get away with it in the photo room. It all depends on how much of a problem over selling is as to what restrictions you place. I can't see that many people complaining they couldn't get a ticket so although a small problem its not massive enough to require a change in the rules. Whether it would need re-looking at for huge guests with time restrictions is something that should be done on a case by case basis.
  6. At other events if the guest is popular a sensible restriction is placed on how many you can buy (3or4) and they are told if they want more to come back just before the shoot and if it hasn't sold out then buy more. Sometimes its more to protect the actor from the possibly over enthusiastic fan who thinks seen as they spent so much money they should get 'special' photos. Other times its to make sure that everyone at the event gets a fair chance to buy one. It just takes an experienced and responsible person in charge of the sales to make a decision on the spot rather than a rule written in stone.
  7. Kristen Bell and Jason Dohring are the top two for a lot of VM fans thats why they are both doing a Veronica Mars convention together. Google is your friend people.
  8. If you really want to meet Shawnee you can, just look into it more.
  9. Id love to meet Alex Reid and get my Ultimate Force DVD cover signed
  10. Ship01

    gladiators

    Nah if you're gonna get an American Gladiator it has to be Crush, who is americas biggest female MMA star Gina Carano
  11. Kirsty Gallacher would totally class as a sports guest because of her appearance on The Games where she competed/thrashed the other celebs in many sports
  12. To you maybe. If you look up the definition of sport you'll find that a case can be made for professional wrestling. sport noun 1. an active diversion requiring physical exertion and competition 2. the occupation of athletes who compete for pay You can't possibly deny that professional wrestlers aren't athletes, just because they can be classed as actors as well doesn't mean they aren't sportsmen and women. And many professional wrestlers were actually college and olympic wrestlers before going into professional wrestling, Kurt Angle is a great example of that.
  13. Brock Lesnar was properly introduced to the sport by good old Frank Mir. In my mind until Brock beats his next opponent Mark Coleman he's still a wannabe.
  14. I think that's a rather unfounded assumption about the financial status of Showmasters myself. But if Jason ever does consider getting Jenna Jameson then I demand he make up for it by having her boyfriend Tito sign next to her and have them bring a shed load of Punishment Athletics gear as well.
  15. Its completely true that some people are never happy and poor Jason has to deal with them people regardless of how hard he works just because he didn't book a particular guest for that one attendee who would only really have been happy if that actor had paid them their undivided attention. Tis the business I suppose. But Jason does go on who people want to meet, the poll for Chevron 7 proves it. So if no one asked for Gates McFadden how does Jason know whether to try book her or not? At least this guy can say he asked for his favourite guest, it obviously seems to make him feel better asking even if he never gets.
  16. Actually I believe he was in TNG before Voyager, and he was involved in a rather important Crusher storyline so asking for Gates as a replacement wasn't too many degrees of separation. Give the guy a break he obviously likes Gates McFadden and likes to ask for her at every opportunity. I have a friend who asks for Kristin Chenoweth for every convention, might sound stupid but she can make a case for her to appear at every con from Firefly to Terminator to Battlestar.
  17. That episode was one of their funniest
  18. Jonathan Ke Huy Quan for sure, Goonies is a classic!
  19. Robert Knepper is already doing an event this year
  20. I hope Katee Sackhoff comes back over at some point, and Grace Park would be great too :)
  21. I can't think of anything you could google that I can tel you on here without being told off. However if you go to Leah Cairns website her latest news will tell you where she has just been with Michelle. That's probably not allowed either so if it disappears go to JediChefs.com and search til you find the answer you are looking for.
