  1. There is nothing on at the Millennium Stadium, but if Wales reach the semi finals (held in London) there will doubtless be a lot of fans in Cardiff. The Bristol City game is now on Monday evening so does not impact on the weekend at all. Therefore as far as I can see, there is absolutely nothing to impact on the weekend whatsoever.
  2. Really?! That's very sad news indeed, Nick was a lovely guy. Condolences to his friends and family.
  3. Mark is a good friend of mine and a top bloke - he will be embarrassed at this praise
  4. Neve was a split shoot, the other tickets had gone through in session 1. Thanks for clearing this up . But what does happen if a talk runs over and you miss a photoshoot? Just quite nervous after some bad experiences yesterday (some good ones too) Go to the photoshoot area immediately, let the pit boss know. Sometimes they can get a guest back. If not they will advise you what to do. and thats not true. Im sorry but I missed my photo shot with frances lee mccain because a clash, she was taking pictures for about 5 minutes but she left after 3 minutes because she was already finished. It was something 2pm I guess and I arrived from my other photo shoot exactly at 2.04pm and the woman in red (the boss for that booth I guess?) said she left like 5 seconds ago. I said I cant come tomorrow and if she could call her back because she is probably very close and she said no we dont do that, never. I said but I was reading on the homepage something about that and she said no Im a liar, she really said that. She said they are not allowed to do that and now you tell us again about that. Im still pissed because I ask for a refund and they said no. I was about to get pics with all the BTTF cast members and because of that Im really really sad. I cant see to spend money again for this convention. Note that I said "sometimes may." I don't know about the exact circumstances that day and why it wasn't possible that day. It has happened before, but the busier the shows are the unlikely is that it is possible. We don't do pick ups at all any more - this has been the case for about a year now, so it is essential that people get to their scheduled shoot on time or a later shoot if one is available. Thank you. As you can tell from the mods post that info never actually made it through to us. No worries.

  6. As 1of2 said, it was definitely on - you could clearly feel it in some spots despite it being very hot generally on level 1. Level 3 was quieter as I guess with the lower ceilings the aircon was more effective. There is absolutely no truth whatsoever that the aircon was off.
  7. Thankyou for a compliment - always a treat after a weekend like that! Glad I was able to help on this instance, - and I know the rest of the crew appreciate you saying you had a good experience. Kev.
  8. The office have said this will be made available today some time.
  9. Brilliant announcement. Few more comedy guests would be lovely. *cough* Ade Edmundson *cough*
  10. Plenty of logistical challenges too! Think of the extra crew required, midweek hotel rooms etc. Just bolting an extra 12 hour working day on is very much not as simple as it sounds....
  11. There were a handful of Stan Lee overnighters last year, but I'm not aware that it has ever happened other than that. I think the most hardcore early birds start around 6.30/7.00 but not many brave that time!
  12. Holy hell! Incredible set of sports guest announcements today! Nice work.
  13. Thankyou QS. It would be great to reassure them as to what the score is, as the purchaser of the tickets lives a good 200 miles away! It makes sense for ID being required for things like Sherlocked where there are high value entry packages, or ME shows, or SM Gold passes - but having attended many gigs at the Motorpoint with E Ticket entry (with no ID required) I could see it taking all day to get everyone in if ID is required for every entry ticket!
  14. I have friends coming to the show who were given entry tickets as gifts, so will not have relevant ID to relate to etickets for entry. I can't find any posts that clarify ID requirements for entry (like Avengers7) - could someone brighter (or more patient) than me please link to them? I can find them for photoshoots etc, but not entry. Thankyou.
  15. The DT is lovely. Only stayed there once unfortunately, but it rocks.
  16. The parties were fun at Milton Keynes a couple of years ago, so fingers crossed for these :)
  17. Kate Dickie is lovely, but I would have to go with David Bradley. A lovely, humble gent.
  18. It's not about constructive criticism, it's about expressing an opinion, however casual. By your logic you have no place complaining about the uninterested people - just ignore them and don't say anything. Don't start a thread inviting discussion and disagreement, then brush it off with 'nobody cares'. A forum is for discussing, kinda like we are doing here....
