homerj Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 How did it go today? Is it just one queue for all Diamonds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartDT Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 we queued for diamonds then straight to gold. got there just after 4 and was out by 5 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natedammit Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I too got there just after 4, got rained on, left, came back later and got through in maybe 30 minutes. It was much better than last year. A quick warning for GP holders collecting later though: you have to choose which two Diamond Talks you want entry to, so study the schedule first. Also Cumberbatch's ticket pile was much smaller than the rest (I guess he's popular or something) so they may run out of those at some point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that I did not know what talk I wanted to attend so I was given a voucher that I can exchange over the weekend for any Diamond talk tickets. I expect that this will still be limited by availability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I'll live - I hate listening to people anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I'm curious about, though, is whether the blue bag that was handed to me as I picked up the gold pass is the one that's supposed to contain "items like mugs, keyrings, posters and exclusive movie memorabilia" because if it was, I have to say it was a bit of a disappointment.

It is i'm afraid. i tend to see the goodie bags as a bonus to pass to my nieces who seem to get a kick out the free stuff but I dont buy the gold pass for that... more for early entry and time saving in queues etc. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite pleased with it actually - but then my standards have been set low by previous years. I'm particularly fond of the LFCC branded mints.

spengler Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 So how was diamond pass collection for those this morning? Were you able to rejoin the main queue in the loading hall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chamberlain0101 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Just a question, as diamond pass pick up is in the loading hall. Are we still able to come back during the show to collect our passes then. Just as my shoots aren't until the afternoon and I'd rather go when its quieter.

Yes, you can pick up your passes later during the Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemzamia Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) Went to get my Alan Tudyk one at 4 on Fri and took over an hour! The queue wasn't even that long! Wasn't fun in heels as I was heading to dinner and a show after. Also it rained like hell Edited July 28, 2017 by Jemzamia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fissijo Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Bit of a queue to get the Diamonds at 7pm yesterday but went smoothly and was very grateful to have one less thing to worry about today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
