Yes that's true, but we all know how rushed it will be on the Sunday with him - I have no idea how you even organise getting through so many people on the one day (yeah you are just clever little bunnies). It is just a bit more relaxed if the guests are there for more than one day. But we are grateful for whatever we can get. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stepster Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Too tall, with John being only there for one day Is it still possible he will do some intimate encounters? Really wanted to bid for this as missed out way back at hub 1 :) cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really wanted to bid for this as missed out way back at hub 1 :) cheers I don't think anyone can tell for sure now. Anything is possible. But a lot will depend on the number of tickets sold. There'll be a lot of autographs to sign and a lot of photos to be taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Who Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 amazing! I really really need to get to this, loved the past four Hubs and always have fun but won't be able to know whether I can go for a few weeks yet. Just gotta keep my fingers crossed that there'll still be Silver tickets then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debz888 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 @Doctor Who....What are these events like? Are they well organised & is there a limit on number of attendees? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 @Doctor Who....What are these events like? Are they well organised & is there a limit on number of attendees? :) Yes, there is a limit on the number of attendees. Have you ever been to a show before? They're much smaller than Collectormania or Comic Con if you have attended these. The past events have always run quite smooth from crew point, but I will leave that question for the actual attendees to answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbird Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) @Doctor Who....What are these events like? Are they well organised & is there a limit on number of attendees? :) 'Actual Attendee' chiming in. The Hub events have been fun, intimate events run very well by friendly, efficient staff and volunteers. There is a limit on the number of attendees so that everyone can have a fun experience, but I'm not sure what the Hub 7 limit is. (Limits for the others have been about 800 people, if memory serves.) I find these events much more fun than huge events, especially those run by other companies. (I won't and can't mention specific other events, as it would be rude to the companies and would violate the rules of this forum.) Suffice it to say that I travel across a huge body of water whenever work permits to attend Showmasters' Hub events, and I do so in preference to other events that are in my country and much closer to home. :) Edited July 10, 2011 by Blackbird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggiem Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Hi georgie1! I've been to all the Hub events, and they are very well run. The crew work hard to make sure everyone gets through their autograph/photoshoot queues at the right time. The venue for Hub 7 (Radisson Edwardian, Heathrow) is a beautiful hotel, although quite a bit bigger than the Park Inn at Northampton, so I would expect this con to be a lot more lively than some of the previous ones. With John attending, there should be a lot more people getting tickets now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debz888 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Ooooh sounds good. I'm going 2 book tickets 2nite! Look forward to it. Hope JB does manage 2 attend but it will be interesting to see what other guests attend also. As regards the number of attendees, 800 would be reasonable i think. What scared me off abit was hearing that there were something like 1400 attendees at comic con in London which is way too many. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big. (1400 is a terrible estimate btw... it was more like 30,000 from what I've heard...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debz888 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Lol! It must of felt like 30,000 then! I'm glad the Hub is a smaller event. I have just booked 2 standard tickets now & 2 photo's with JB. I have attended 'Supernatural' events before and their attendee's are capped at 800. I was thinking about going to a Comic con nxt year but i can't be doin with shufflin along amongst a crowd of people for hours. We shall see. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icena Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Bit of an odd question, but can someone confirm for me that John Barrowman is allergic to wool? I'm sorting out materials for my fem!Jack cosplay, and I'd like to know. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Torchwood Captain Jack coats are made from other materials, which is why they aren't completely RAF blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when things don't go exactly to plan. Sometimes especially when they don't go according to plan. Morgan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
