Queen_Sindel Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 He is James Bond, and hasn't done these shows in a while. One iconic role is enough for long lines. Plus he is an older guest, so he may require more breaks and thus get through less people. If you can stay around til closing Sunday you have a chance lines will have died down. But "nab him casual"... I don't think I would use that wording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hoping to nab him casual like on the sunday I've been surprised before by people like James Caan had no que at all last year! As Queen says. Unfortunately some guests are very hard to advise on, particularly if they haven't done events. Peter Weller was a prime example last year, he was a slow signer.

Indeed, same here! I really can't wait to meet an actual Bond-actor of my all time favorite franchise! I've also decided to have two things signed by him, that and the two photos makes him the most expensive guest so far or me, but so worth it!!

Sardonis Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 That fact there are only 2 full batches for the Diamond Passes for George Lazenby on Saturday means that there won't be that much people will be queuing for an autograph? And if I go for a VQ-ticket right after I enter the venue, I'm mostly guaranteed of an autograph in the afternoon? Because I'm still thinking of buying just a Photo and an Auto separately instead of Diamond Pass, so I could save another 35 pounds for maybe another autograph.

Just keep in mind that there might be more who think the same and when the schedule is released (like it it is now) the selling of DP and photo ops usually increase.

No one can guarantee an auto on VQ's I'm afraid, we don't know how slow or quick George will sign. There have been guests in the past who have barely got through a 100 or so people because they are slow and chatty. If you want to try on VQ's get there early to try for a low VQ, but as I say we can't tell you what your chances will be with a new guest who's signing method we don't know. You may well be fine on the VQ's, most guests are, but we just don't know. Edited February 26, 2019 by Raylenth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrong Name Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I think I am right in saying that George’s diamond pass went on sale before the diamond batch system was introduced, so there will be more than just 2 batches for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought DP with Mr. Lazenby on the same day the tickets were released and I have a batch no (Batch 1). I remember Charles Dance did not have at first but at a later date it was added to DP tickets.

If you had no batch I believe these are counted as Batch 0 and it’s impossible for us to know how many are in that batch unless SM randomly said, which is unlikely.

I think George was the first DP guest that had Batch Number, I remember I was surprised when I saw it on my ticket when I bought it. If my memory serves me correct I even asked about it here on the forum and QS wrote it is "something new", or something like that.. I bought mine something like half an hour after it was released.

Diabolik Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 So there are no batch 0 for George? Just so I can confidently know I’ll be in the first 75 to see George with my batch 3 DP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sardonis Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 And the fact that the earliest time I could get at the venue is 10 PM (because I'm coming from abroad, I'm arriving at St. Pancras at 9PM). Still OK I should just buy a Photo and Autograph separately... or should I consider DP? I can wait all day... I'm just there for George Lazenby and the atmosphere...

If you really only come for George then I would seriously consider getting a DP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
