Yellowjackets cast please.

Guests from Jurassic Park, Ahsoka, Strange New Worlds. Sofia Boutella.

I agree entirely with your gripe about the prices. I spent £25 on autographs from 4 guests that are realistically £15 guests at most. That was a little frustrating, but they were all lovely and happy to chat for ages.

On the train to Brighton. I enjoyed today. All of the guests that I met were lovely, and I met far more than I have done for the past few years. It was very quiet though, other than David Boreanaz’s queues.

You can only pay cash at the desks. If paying by card, you need to buy them at the sales desk.

That doesn’t bode well for my Boreanaz photoshoot tomorrow. Did you happen to notice where Denise Richards was sitting? She’s the only one I need a VQ ticket for in the morning.

No wonder you’re not excited yet. If I’m honest, 5 years ago the people on my list would all be maybes but I’ve tempered my expectations now I’m actually looking forward to meeting them.

How many guests are on your list now?

Ming Qiu got added to my list during the week and has just been rolled to November (my first cancellation) so it’s as you were for me.

I’ve started packing. By which I mean I’ve picked out two t-shirts and created a small pile of items to bring for signing.

Never got to meet Andy Hallett, unfortunately, as I hadn’t discovered conventions yet when he died. Finally meeting Boreanaz means I’m just missing SMG, Michelle Trachtenberg and Seth Green from Buffy.

Unless there’s a surprise Saturday-only guest announcement within the next week that I absolutely cannot miss, I’ll only be attending on Sunday next weekend. Meeting: David Boreanaz (photo) Denise Richards (auto, VQ) Whit Hertford (auto) Tracey Eddon (auto) Rissa Kilar (auto) Chris Bartlett (auto) Marti Matulis (auto) and a few comic artists, if there’s time.

This is actually my busiest LFCC in about 5 years. I’ve skipped a few and I actually left one without meeting any guests and just a £40 Lego minifig to show for the trip.

That’s cheating.

Out of curiosity, why are you counting down to Thursday?

Is this the earliest that they’ve ever released the LFCC photoshoot schedule? It reduces the odds of them announcing another big guest even further.

It’s looking like a Sunday-only con for me, and a quiet one at that, with all but one of the guests on my maybe list there on the Saturday too.

One for the maybe list.

One for the maybe list.

One for the maybe list.

I’m not sure that anyone is getting big or relevant names at the moment. I’m even slightly regretting my gold ticket for a weekend con at the end of June. It’s not looking like much value for money.

Autographs are usually free.

Not final few, next few. I’d prefer that they keep adding guests right up until the convention. The line-up isn’t good enough to stop after the next batch of announcements.

I’m at another convention the weekend before LFCC. I probably won’t get excited for this one until the previous one is over, unless someone truly exciting gets announced.

I’ve never met him, and I’m not currently going on the Saturday, but he was one of three Saturday only guests on my maybe list in case my plans change.
