  1. Always something to worry about. I'm just getting over the worries of tickets, validations and id for this one, Im preparing to go as a hobbit and attempting to adapt my sandals to look like large feet. I'm a bit of a bodger so more likely to look like sandals than large feet☺.

     

    I'm coming by train from the south coast.

     

    I was at a con where two guys stuck plushie handmade feet onto their knees and went around on their knees for most of the day

  2. But in normal life, I was denied a blue badge initially because I'm too young apparently. I cannot sit in the seats on the bus that say for the less mobile, because it upsets the elderly. I rarely get a seat on a train because bags are more important than someone falling over. Some disabled people will have these experiences that luckily able bodied won't need.

     

    You should tell the elderly to mind their own business

  3. Scott would be a huge boon to get to LFCC or one of the other signing events.

     

    He's one of the most talented voice actors in existence and has been the voice behind numerous iconic characters - Transformers fans would remember him as the voices of Dinobot/Rattrap/Waspinator/Silverbolt in Beast Wars (yes he voiced all four characters and they sound completely different), Duo in Gundam Wing and more recently Wolverine in X-Men Evolution and Stork and Repton in Storm Hawks.

     

     

    The only UK event he's been to so far is a Transformers convention and he's one of the personable guests you could hope to meet. He's still a huge draw at cons in the US despite having been on the circuit for years.

  4. Please god someone make this happen...

     

    months since i posted this but nothing has changed...

     

    i know he is expensive to bring over as i spoke to someone who asked around but i am certain he would draw, id buy at least 4 autos even if they were £25 straight away

     

    From what I understand at Transformers conventions he doesn't charge for autographs but he does have a large appearance fee. One European Transformer convention said that to bring him over would almost bankrupt the con.

  5. I feel sick :'( £300 now wasted! As I said I've never watched Stargate so was coming to meet Ben!

     

     

    No idea whether to go or not :'(

     

    I think you should, quite a number of us are Farscape fans. As there are no refunds it'd be better to come rather than not come and waste £300 and you never know you might end up liking the guest talks. I love Neil Roberts despite never seeing him in a show, I went to his talk and a con and he was pretty amazing.

    cheer up! no matter who's coming the chevron cons are always fun!

     

     

    ill see who the guest they replace with are! then decide whether or not to come! its not just me, im bringing my neice and wont be fun if ther isnt something for her! shes only seven and was set on meeting ben!

     

    time will tell i spose

     

    Torri's a pretty wonderful guest (some cons tend to bring her back on a regular basis)

     

    Hopefully, your neice will enjoy the evening parties. Last year there was a bouncing castle, bucking camel and one of those things where you have to run on a bungee cord on seperate nights

  6.  

    Highs - meeting RDA and lots of lovely friends again. :D

    Lows - Sorry, but Fulvio's rather repeated jokes about that rape scene. :WINCE:

     

    I don't know if I would class those as jokes, he sounded weirded out when he mentioned that creepy website list and the second time was more explaining how the scene was filmed and I recall him saying it was a hard scene to shoot

  7. The number for the hotel isn't working

     

    Edit: It's working now and the hotel is fully booked

     

     

    Does anyone know any alternative hotels?

  8. Why Robin Dunne?

     

     

    If you're going to bring Sanctuary main cast over why not someone who's been in Stargate? Like Christoper Heyerdahl? I'd rather see him again than Robin again to be honest

  9. Is anyone looking for a roommate for the con? I'm Irish and female

     

    I'll be happy to room with someone who's already booked a room or book a room and share with someone

  10. Garry Chalk His stories are legendary, just ask about the cola incident.

     

    I think I might have been responsible for that. At a Transformers convention Ian Corlett mentioned Garry being very flatulent so at another convention I mentioned what Ian had said and asked him if he had any embarrassing stories about Ian and I'm pretty sure he said he managed to freak Ian out due to them happening to be recording together at the time of the cola incident.

     

    And I second Garry

  11. loved vasta and jenny, really hope they do a period ep with those 2 in.

     

    Several people on IMDB want a spin-off show with them

     

     

    Have just watched it again, and what I don't get is the Gallifrey writing on the cot. If it was the Doctor's cot, and baby Melody was only in it for about 5 minutes, how come the writing on it seems to suggest "Amy, River's your daughter" as implied?:D Watched that part a couple times, and still don't get it....

     

    Someone on IMDB said that River and The Doctor were looking at the name-leaf- thing in the cot, rather than the cot itself and mentioned that The Moff confirmed this on Twitter

     

     

     

    I thought there would be at least one fool who would call the Doctor a pedo after the ep, instead there's bitching about the gay couples in the episode.

  12. Thought I'd go for some different names-

     

    Robert Wisden- Col Samuels SG1

    Kirby Morrow- Kleinman SGA

    Martin Christopher- Marks SGA/SG1

    Patrick Gilmore- Volker SGU

     

    Other than those.... David Hewlett, Chuck Campbell, Kavan Smith, David Nykl... not biased at all right ;)

     

    I'll go for some different names too

     

    Scott McNeil - Kefflin in 'Company of Thieves' and he was also a villager in another ep of SG1. Oh and he played the guy who rescued Magnus and Will from the basilik in 'Hollow Earth' in Sanctuary. He's done non-SG events in the UK before and he's a fantastic guest.

     

    Chiara Zanni - Melena (AKA Ronon's exploding ex) from the SGA ep 'Sateda'. I've heard she's lovely

     

     

    Oh and Christoper Heyerdahl, Jason Momoa and Lou Diamond Phillips

  13. VIP tickets aren't just about the meal, but if that's a main priority for anyone then they can take their chances at the auction. There's always that option.

     

    You get exactly what it states on the website :thumbup:

     

     

    so you get the same as the last one and the one before that then? just for £500 - £600 more?

     

    The VIP tix for the next Chevron event are £995, the tix for the last Chevron event were £1,495.00 due to Richard Dean Anderson attending, it's down to guest appearance fees it seems

  14. the hilton prices, my god, 12 quid for a club sandwich, 2.90 for a small bottle of water. my my. queues meant i had to go for this instead of the cheap con option. evening i went to subway ;-)

     

    The small shop had 1.5lt bottles of water for £1.95, if you went to the concierge desk they had a list of restaurants that did delivery

     

    Malcolm, how the hell you got through all them photo's, fastest trigger in the west!! :thumbup: :

     

    They should set him to music and then post it on YouTube

     

    Lows

    Over too soon!

    The ocassional selfish attendee losing it over RDA's hat... I mean seriously its a hat. Its his head he can wear what he wants. Plus I thought it looked cute!

     

    Almost forgot the full blown post con lurgy I got on the train home... Who was the culprit??

     

    There were people complaining about his hat in Vancouver last year as well. I think this was a much more enjoyable con

     

    Post-con lurgy/con-crud is the Beast, I got it after a con in February, had a cough for weeks, it was almost gone, then I went to an anime con last month and had a mild relapse!

     

    This Storm Hawks fanfic was inspired by the six week con-crud I got after attending a Stargate con in Vancouver - http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4627882/1/All_..._Come_to_an_End

  15. 4. Chris Heyerdahl (1 bird 2 stones: Twilight and SPN)

     

    He was also Todd the (most awesome) Wraith (ever) in Stargate Atlantis. I won't be coming to the con as I've seen read or seen Twilight, but I have met Chris at a Stargate con and he's a pretty amazing guest so you guys won't be disappointed if he makes an appearance
