good call Calumn if we request them, they will come... And yes peter is a great guest too. Ive not met him yet and now that ive got all the 1966 Final players id like to meet the '66 squad players who didnt make the final. and lets not forget Pamela - cool to have 3 Poseidon guests now. Good reunion. happy with these 3 and on wed some more...

I knew it would be Hey thats cool, i cant make the Friday anyway this time, so enjoy it! The important thing of course is that we're getting some great announcements. clifton is a dream come true for me - my first big screen bond experience as a kid was a double bill of live n let die and golden gun in the 70s with my dad, so thats a very special and important guest to me, as im sure to all other bond fans too. I didnt think any show was going to get him here so thank you dave n garry for making it happen for us. its shaping up to be the best ever Autographica...

YES I was batting 3 for 3! Sorry dave Fantastic news esp on clifton hey - whoever won that prize earlier (when i was offline!!!) owes me a drink! looking forward to wed announcements now...

So did I, but wanted to check. So we know what level of fame to be thinking about.

Dave - when you said this, did you mean the horror guest will be the main guest or the other guest you will be announcing on wed?

OK, heres a recap of the clues for the horror guest - -------- I am very pleased to announce that next week we will be revealing a superb guest for all you horror fans. A worlds first for Autographica and a bonus for anyone who likes being scared to death. -------- All guesses so far are wrong wrong wrong.(referring to C Lee and Evil Dead) This was a very scary movie and is one of the classics. -------- don't forget wednesday night we announce our killer horror guest. ----------- The evil will soon be upon us ------ It's not Roy Scheider or anyone from Jaws One thing i will say is that you will love this guest, as horror films go it is one of the best. This is a real mans horror movie not one of those girlie imitations with childish monsters running around in plastic masks. You are Cold cold cold (note - max von sydow was mentioned before this post) --------- d-Nothing to do with Texas chainsaw massacre jw -But you didnt say nothing to do with the Wicker Man Dave (referring to edward woodward) d - no I Didn't did i jw-Ladies and gentlemen we may have a winner.Maybe d-And maybe not !!!!!! ------------ It is not Christopher Lee O.K Heres the info you need. On Wednesday we will announce another 2 including our world's first horror guest. 3 wheels on my wagon and i'm still rolling along It,s not scream --------------- It is not Danny Lloyd !!!!! (shining)

Hes gonna start hating me If its Edward Woodward on wed then dave won't speak to me again Or - hes probably got a big surprise up his sleeve.

Peter Bonetti I claim my prize of a free auto So, my guesses for tonights 3 - Clifton James, Pamela Sue Martin and Peter Bonetti.

You're just being cruel to me now for guessing Clifton James and Pamela Sue Martin Its a fun way to do the announcements though. Looking forward to finding out for sure who you've got for us. As i said to you back at M Keynes in May, you never fail to surprise us with some great first timers. So, lets think. It may be Edward Woodward - or it may be someone we're all overlooking.

Ladies and gentlemen we may have a winner Maybe

I was lucky enough to meet Rik too a few years ago - he was great then too. Couldn't have been more nice. I met Lee Evans after seeing The Producers last Nov too - I can't recommend him highly enough for fans to meet. He was superb. Had time for everyone, signing, having pics taken. Stayed for ages and was funny too. He'd been a true star on stage all night, but then was so down to earth with us. Then rode off on his bicycle after he'd made sure everyone got an autograph. I think with comedy stars lots have had to come up through stage work - acting or stand up - and so maybe thats why lots of them are more in touch with their audience, and more friendly and down to earth. Really would be cool to meet a few more so fingers crossed that Autographica get some.

Who would be good to get? One of the announcements tomorrow will be for a sports guest. I really like meeting the great sports legends. And the auto values of the greats can skyrocket in time. At previous Autographicas they've had some very good guests from sports history - 1966 England players, Fred Truman, Alex Stepney, Mick Jones, Allan Clarke, Alan Minter, etc. But theres only a handful of shows where we can meet these stars. And quite often theres not many big name first timers now for sports at UK signing shows. So it would be very good to have some great ones at Autographica. Who would be good to get from the past greats? Heres some that I'd like to see - Football Pelé - obviously this would be a huge guest to get. Very hard to get him, but he would of course be one of the most popular guests ever at a UK show. He's done private signings, and he's made appearances at Old Trafford (to open megastore) and Middlesbrough (for a photo exhib on him) in recent years. Any of the other surviving members of Brazil 1970 team, often voted the greatest team ever Other football greats - Alfredo di Stefano Ferenc Puskas Eusebio Sir Tom Finney - one of Englands greats. He's done book signings in recent years. Nat Lofthouse Bill Perry - scored the winning goal in the legendary 1953 Cup Final Cyril Robinson - another legend from the 1953 Cup Final Jimmy Armfield Mario Kempes - he's done a UK signing before, but never been at Autographica Paulo Rossi Dino Zoff Gerd Muller And something different - for 1966 collectors who have now got the autographs of the 1966 England players, it would be good to have some of the German players from that famous match attend shows. After all, it takes two great teams to make a classic final and it would be something new for '66 collectors. And something else different for '66 collectors - Dave Corbett (owner of Pickles the dog who found the stolen World Cup before the 66 finals) Motor sports Sir Stirling Moss - any sports fan would like to meet him, but I don't think any show has had him yet Sir Jackie Stewart Niki Lauda Mario Andretti Murray Walker - hes done book signings in recent years John Surtees Jack Brabham Carl Foggerty Kenny Roberts Sr Olympic greats Mark Spitz Carl Lewis Olga Korbut Nadia Comaneci Steve Ovett Daley Thompson Duncun Goodhew Alan Wells Mary Peters Cricket - always good to get as guests and even more so at this moment Ian Botham Bob Willis (they'd be good together, signing 1981 Ashes photos) Sir Garfield Sobers Sir Viv Richards Dennis Lillee Geoffrey Boycott Richie Benauld Dickie Bird Tennis Bjorn Borg Rod Laver Ilie Nastase obviously I'd also say John McEnroe and Boris Becker but very hard to get them. They have done book signings though. Rugby Bill Beaumont JPR Williams Gareth Edwards David Campese Cycling Eddie Merckx Horse racing Lester Piggott Willy Carson Snooker Alex Higgins Commentators/presenters Dickie Davies Harry Carpenter David Coleman John Motson -------- and Geoff Capes (the most capped British male athlete of all time) -------- Theres also lots of boxing ideas in Crostini's thread HERE Any other sporting greats you'd like to see at the show?

But you didnt say nothing to do with the Wicker Man Dave
