SF events - Sept-Dec 2005 UK

[I, Brian]

I need to know of any interesting SF events happening over the next 3 months - any mainstream movie releases, big events, anything that the mainstream media might be interested in covering. Also needs to be in the UK - sorry!

list of stuff at the NEC - toys, memorabillia etc - should be good sci fi stuff at the memorabillia one maybe some stars - good day out anyhoo!

Thanks for the headsup, but it's not quite got the drama I'm looking for - premiers, major cons, etc.

If it helps, I need something that TV will like.

don't know if this'll help, it seems to occur quite often, the latest is for October 29-30

and this one holds links to both a buffy and firefly convention, one in blackpool and the other in London

Thanks for the recommendations - London Expo especially looks good - I've put Mark Robson and yourself forward for it to Rahnak, with myself as a third option just in case.

sounds good babe

[Rane Longfox]

As a point of complete uninterest, I hear that at Expo, the new "Soltice Park" complex where I'm gonna be working will be heavily advertised.

Bet you're so excited now

[Princess Ivy]

oh yes, jumping

[Rane Longfox]

Knew I could count on you

Brian, Newcon3 is happening on 1-2 Oct in Northampton: http://www.serpens-argenteus.com/newcon3/

Also, the British Fantasy Convention is on the same weekend from 30 Sep to 2 Oct in Walsall: http://www.britishfantasysociety.org.uk/fcon/index.htm

I intend to do a day at each. I'll be participating as a panel member in Northampton on the Sunday morning, but am just going to Walsall for a nose around. I hope this is useful.

[I, Brian]

Did our friend at Grenada send you an e-mail??

No. I'm afraid not. However, I'm in contact with the national press now due to the consequences of the other email I sent you. I think you'll be seeing something fairly soon. I'll let you know when it's likely to come out.

This look interesting, but far too expensive for me

[Mark Robson]

That's a shame, Rune. It would have been nice to meet you. I'm off to see the Princess in Birmingham soon! It's very exciting ... my daughter is very jealous of me going to meet a 'real' Princess!
