An extensive list of credits as an extra, and mostly an operator of the Daleks I'll have to check around but if this true, that leaves only Mike Mungarven as the sole Dalek Operator of the Classic Series to my knowledge.

Mfahey79 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 15 minutes ago, D-C-A said: Okay so what i'm about to say isn't me being a OTT woke person but a genuine concern that i would like to raise surrounding the announcement of Rupert Grint. Now let me preface this by saying none of this is directed at Grint himself as he has no part in this, but announcing a big Harry Potter star at this point in time was probably a bad idea, now i understand they're all actors and Grint has distanced himself from JK Rowling, but given the recent news about her it can be viewed as bad timing, especially given the years of blatant transphobia by her, and the more recent Holocaust denial by her, this is in my opinion a bad time given that an announcement is interpret-able as promotion to that series. thats how i feel about it really, i know its a darker turn but i just feel that this can be viewed in many different lights given recent events. As you say, Rupert like most of his cast mates have long distanced themselves from the witterings of JK Rowling, so hopefully any backlash will be kept to a minimum if there is one at all. So as one of the main cast members I can see him being really busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one passed me by, I didnt see they added Saturday as well. If I didnt get everything I needed him to sign last Autumn, then he would be the main guest for me this year. Well until they announced BRIAN BLESSED that is. I've been wanting to meet him for such a long time. I've dealt with him at work many years ago, but never had a chance to meet him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, things work out for you, or at the very least they dont announce someone you desperately need if you cant make it. This is the convention I'm most intrigued by, as I know they used to have them in the shopping centre before moving to the stadium, but at the time I had a job where I couldnt get the weekends off, In my current job we have exhibited there several times, so it will be interesting to see how they utilise the space.

D-C-A Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 We've had some announcements Whilst working mainly as a comic artist for numerous comics that i can't at this time be bothered to list out we have Mike Collins who worked as a storyboard artists from series 9 to 11 and worked on the majority of Class, meaning for his signature you'll need Series 9, 10, "Twice upon a time", 11 & Class. he is signing for free and is attending on all of the days.

D-C-A Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 and on a more important note we have this man who presented Blue Peter (Which is odd because i never met peter): Peter Purves played the 1st Doctor companion (And good friend of William Hartnell) Steven Taylor from "The Chase" to "The Savages", meaning his line up of Content is more dotted than if this post was written in brail so i'll do my best to list them Below. Purves for his TV work can be on "Lost in Time", "The Aztecs" (Special Edition), "The Chase", "The Time Meddler", "Galaxy 4", "The Ark" and "The Gunfighters" for DVD with "Galaxy 4" also Available for Blu Ray and Steelbook, whilst "Galaxy 4", "The Myth Makers", "The Daleks Masterplan", "The Massacre", "The Celestial Toymaker" & "The Savages" available on CD, and of course because of more recent developments you can also get him on your Season 2 boxsets. I of course have already made it extremely clear what i'm getting him on being "The Aztecs" (Special Edition), the CDs of "The Massacre" and "The Celestial Toymaker" and finally of course on "The Light at the End". he is attending on the sunday and unlike Maureen O'Brien he is only £15 for a Autograph or photo and is offering a duel option with Maureen for £40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-C-A Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 so i received an email update, i'm getting a partial refund on an order because of Leesons ill health, he was unable to sign my copy of Season 15 so thats going to be without his name for the foreseeable future, which is a bummer as i had hoped to have him and Tom on a set together as the only other set i have Tom on is the very brief line up of Him, Matthew Waterhouse and Sarah Sutton, so having John on another set would have put me a step closer to another line up. again show-masters Janet Fielding is highly requested by at least 3 people, so please bring her back, there would be a very easy £60-£80 for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
