It's probably a long shot but there was wearing a lovely lady wearing a TNMT t-shirt with red head who kindly informed me that Corely Feldman was the Justin Beiber of the 1980s! If you read this... hi =)

This really is a shame, I was quite looking forward to a UK Trek con . I suppose another ticket will have to suffice

The phrase in latin is 'Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?'. I don't know if that is the answer you're looking for though

I voted for Enterprise. However, I usually say my favourite is the series I watched the most recently between Enterprise and Voyager. So on that form when I finish watching Voyager (I'm on season 4 at the minute) it will move to the top of the list This is how it stands at the minute.
Enterprise - Great stories from the start + Jolene Blalock
Voyager - Nice concept and well executed + Jeri Ryan
DS9 - First 3 seasons a little slow but what a great enemy the Dominion are!
TNG - Some really great episodes but I miss an overall story arc
TOS - Really need to rewatch this series

I could only afford to meet the two captains today unfortunately but both Patrick Stewart and Kate Mulgrew were great. I was extremely pleased when Patrick approved of my choice of University (being the University of York) after he spotted my very conspicuous hoody and Kate had a great sense of humour
It was great to see the MacMillan Cancer Research guys, with the very welcome addition of two stunning Orion slave girls.
I also really liked the new arrival of the American food stall (even if it was a touch on the pricey side), good root beer is hard to come by in the UK.
Pictures to follow in the relevant thread :)

I bagged a Scott Bakula autograph for £15

Well I finally got back home in Nottingham at 9.30pm, 16 hours after leaving this morning But it was thoroughly worth it. I managed to stretch my meagre student budget to meet George, Chase and Rene. All three were fantastic, really talkative and friendly
I also took part in my first Collectormania auction and it was really intense! After a few failed bids I managed to bag myself a Scott Bakula autograph for a mere £15!!
The vast number of people in costumes were at their usual high standards with a particular mention to the Klingons raising money for cancer research, those guys were awesome!
A big thumbs up for the venue, bar the annoying tube maintenance it is very accessible and the way the signings were spread out made it really easy to move around.
tl;dr - Great event, great guests, see you in Milton Keynes

Night all... hope for better news tomorrow :)

Haha, couldn't see this happeneing Hopefully it'll be worth the wait

+1 For the Jeri Ryan suggestion!!! It really would be a dream come true to meet her.... well not all my dreams come true

I'm pretty certain I'll be there but if they were to get some Trek guests it'll be a definite XD

Initially I would have said meeting Jewel Staite but I think it has to be meeting Scott Bakula He was more friendly than I imagined
