We have lost so many actors from Star Wars over the last few years but hearing about Jeremy really hurts. He was always the perfect gentleman and a great personality to meet. My lasting memory of him will be at one of the Autographicas where he stood on the fan's side of the table to sign autographs. Such a sad loss.

Postponed until 12th & 13th September 2020
18blue78 replied to showmasters's topic in Collectormania Milton Keynes 2021
In the current climate postponing is the responsible thing to do. And if I can take this opportunity, from someone in the "key worker" category (not NHS/health/healthcare) please, please, PLEASE STAY AT HOME until this is over. -
It would be nice if there were some Sports guests at Milton Keynes.

Thanks for the info folks. I'm probably not going be able to make the next one but good to know for the future.

I've never been to a London Film Fair. Can anyone tell me what time the event normally goes on until? Thanks in advance.

Thoughts on the weekend?
18blue78 replied to Faerie Tanith's topic in Film & Comic Con Birmingham 2019/Collectormania 26
It's been about two years since I was last at an event and I had a great time on Saturday. Like everyone I was disappointed when Ruther Hauer cancelled but I've been going to these events long enough to accept cancellations. Guests will always prioritise their careers, and so they should. That left only one film guest for me to meet. Dermot Crowley was excellent and I was able to spend time chatting with him about some of his experiences shooting Star Wars. With the sports guests only arriving after 11:00 that gave me time to hit the stalls for Xmas presents (I realise it only June #$^%!! -
Sad news about Stan. Like many here I was fortunate to meet him when he came over to LFCC and that priceless interaction will be a memory I will treasure forever. Today the world seems a little dimmer.

Unless Showmasters have some radical plans I think Autographica might not happen again. The Bond girls are now headlining another Showmasters event and unfortunately astronauts not involved in Apollo don't seem to draw the crowds, unbelievable as that sounds. From a business perspective it makes sense to concentrate on profitable events, that said, I hope I am wrong because I also miss the Autographica events.

Just want to pass my thanks on to the guys and gals in the Pre-Order office at Showmasters. Nothing will ever beat meeting a guest face to face. Some of the interactions I have had with guests over the years have been priceless. But priorities change and long gone are the days when I can justify traveling the length of the country to meet a couple of guest (being an adult sucks). So this year I thought I'd give pre-ordering a go. I made two orders, one was a send-in photo the other was a photo from the pre-order site. Both have arrived in perfect condition, signed where I wanted and

GUESTS, any regrets on not meeting them
18blue78 replied to loveamyadams's topic in Collectormania 25
There are a few I've missed, for one reason or another, and regretted. At Autographica (can't remember which one) I decided not to meet Scott Carpenter as I couldn't afford his autograph at the time. It would be his last appearance in the UK. I also decided not to meet the stars of Buck Rogers, Gil Gerard and Erin Gray, when they came over. Still don't know why I swerved the stars of one of my favourite childhood shows. But my biggest regret was not hanging around to meet Kenny Baker one last time. I had met Kenny at a few shows over the years, got a couple of autographs, and was e -
