BUT thats the point if its fair then it needs to be done, random cast shots fair enough move and swap, like a generic classic drs actors pic, 3rd cyberman to left swap him for a dalek operator no sweat. but when you have three core (oh my theres that word again) charachters who make a particular group and one cancels then it should be cancelled. if you had a photo booked with the three stooges and one cancelled then its fair to cancel and refund for those that wish it. dont forget this is an expensive shoot. and if it is forced ahead a lot of people are paying for something they frankly do not want and will come away very upset.
Oh I do agree it should be done, I just didn't expect it would be done.

Here we go:
Fair enough I read that thread heading as 'Access Doors & Collection' for Gold Passes and Diamond Passes so ignored it not needing either rather than 'Access Doors' & Collection for Gold Passes and Diamond Passes; the warning wasn't in a thread heading.
Anyway I got lucky booking on the Sunday.
I always book the hotel first - anything that's cancellable, I never know if the line up is worth my while till later in the day. As it is I had a clash; the other event sold out first,

I don't do Twitter. Just here.

. i just want a refund as thats fair.
I think the problem is if they do that - whilst being fair - everyone will expect them to do the same the next time this happens.
-
I only booked last Sunday, but I'm surprised there wasn't a low level warning.

yeah its way too much of a risk! I remember in 2015 sm saying how every year was going to be bigger and better, but last years line up was better, ok they got BC going but no real names. im still in hope that one day sm get the xfiles guys over! and even then id hold out for the group photo till the day I go to make sure one has not pulled out
It is bigger - look at the number of diamonds - but better is always going to come down to personal preference. The £10 guests interest me more the Hollywood stars personally; it could get too big and pricey for me.
Cancellations are always part of the risk, increased the earlier they are announced. Reunions also increase the odds someone will mess it up.
Only 3 cancellations for me so far, 2 of them I have met before.
Perhaps having the event the week after the biggest (or at least most famous of its type) in the world doesn't help get bigger current names.

Olympia does have cloakrooms available, suggest you leave some stuff there.

Think about it logically. If everyone brought a massive bag with them, each would need searching and it would take ages to get everyone in.
Bring what you only absolutely need with you on the day
That's easy to say, but on the Friday and Sunday I'll have my stuff for the weekend, before and after I've checked in and out the hotel.
I don't have a problem with bag checks, but do find it daft you're checked in there, but shopping centre over the road... same bags no searches!

Well there's always going to be misogynists, I say to them, give her a chance in an iconic role, instead of crying that a man is no longer The Doctor.
Oh I agree - it doesn't bother me personally - it would take more than that for me to loose interest in the show. All I'm saying is its' divisive, to put it mildly

I think I speak for all Whovians when I say 3rd this.
Half of them have threatened to never watch the show again, so I don't think you'd speak for them.

Cast of the Doctor Who Movie (which other than Paul, Daphne, Eric or Yee I haven't seen have done a Con):
Geoffrey Sax & Eliza Roberts have done events before, possibly Jeremy Radick too, but yes I would like to get at least one more cast member on my DVD.
-
Not got mine yet either. Which post on Facebook should I be following?

Gillian Anderson + Sarah Michelle Gellar
Please make the dream come alive ;-) it will happen one day (after missing Gillian's last appearance at London).
If Sarah could be persuaded to come over here she'd probably be a strictly no touching during photoshoots guest and still looks a bit awkward for them, from recent evidence.

I've just noticed give or take a pixel the new forum fits my avatar perfectly.

Latest Guest Announcement - Martin Gordon

Prison OfficerI could guess the story just from that role (The Mind of Evil) and I don't know what it is about that story in particular and Star Wars, I'd understand if it was from around the same time, but its a whole 5 years earlier
Michael Sheard
first TV for Michael Carter
Stuart Fell, Derek Chafer & Les Conrad
and now Rogue One adds
Martin Gordon (his only Who) Nick Hobbs and Richard Franklin!

Ah yes John Cleese. The wonderful actor who was in a Doctor Who episode for less than a minute (such wasted potential).
And since he has no call to be there, the art lies in the fact that he is there.

Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy, Star Wars Rebels, Ringer, Scream 2, The Grudge & The Crazy Ones)
I'd say the chance of her doing an event in the UK may have just shot up considerably, but she'd be a pricey diamond.

Doesn't mean they won't ever be back, Collectormania was off the schedule for a bit before they relaunched it.
Wouldn't hurt for them to say. I only found out the other day via a newspaper link on Facebook why the Exeter dates changed, but you'd never even know there was a different date first planned on here.
-
And we still got no idea, sorry.
Doesn't really matter in my case, she's the sort of name I never expected 4 or 5 years ago would do an event, so is one I got at the stage door - dedication and all. Since they were free I could hardly complain. And she was lovely.
-
Is she going to insist on dedicating? I know she does in person, but obviously she's not paid for her time there.
-
Only the one for me so far, someone who I'd expect to be very busy.
But then I've been doing these over 10 years now, and don't do photoshoots, so its obviously going to be less of a draw to me than someone who only has a few events under their belt.
But I can't really complain there's too many repeat guests - when people get so excited about Christopher Lloyd doing what will be his 3rd LFCC and 4th SM/ME event - there's obviously still a high demand for him. I got my autograph from him at his first - pre-diamond - show.
"No photos" question
in London Film & Comic Con 2017
Posted · Edited by TerraHawk
All except Kristian were along the back wall, and most of them looked to have the sign up. Obviously I can't look at a photo to check.
I did take a photo with my mobile from the queue in John Cleese's enclosure and was told off by a blueshirt - but I did point out it said no 'posed' photos and when he checked with the assistant I expected the sign to be changed, but no, it came back it was fine to take photos.
