KAROLINE ANDREW: Ok, not so much another galaxy, but another country!<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Hi Everyone! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Karoline Andrew also known here and on Twitter by my pen name JohnLizzieGirl. I am a new contributor to WHR from the United Kingdom. I am thrilled to have been asked to report on one of the things I love most: going to conventions!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Corin
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A brief introduction to me:\u00a0 I live in the East of England, putting me in a brilliant position to attend many conventions and events around the country.\u00a0 I recently graduated with an Honours degree in Performing Arts.\u00a0 Incredibly, I was lucky enough to write my dissertation on the Ethics of Science Fiction, which I am now planning to expand into a book.\u00a0 I am an eight year veteran of conventions, in the UK, USA and Canada.\u00a0 I was asked to contribute after the event had finished, so I had not taken detailed notes, but at future events I will be able to report in more detail.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This particular convention was brilliantly run by Massive Events, the convention running arm of Showmasters UK. Guests were Torri Higginson, Rainbow Sun-Franks, Corin Nemec and David Blue.\u00a0 Yes, you heard me, David Blue! \u00a0It was a brilliant move for Massive Events to engage David Blue for his first dedicated convention appearance.\u00a0 I\u2019m going to be focussing mostly on David in this report, as with this being his first appearance he created a big stir!\u00a0 Excitingly, two days before the convention, Massive Event\u2019s announced the addition of the authors James Swallow and Peter Evans.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There are a few interesting differences between Creation events in the US and Massive Events conventions here in the UK which will be highlighted. Firstly, whilst being billed as a three day event, the \u2018action\u2019 only really happens on the second and third day (Saturday and Sunday).\u00a0 Friday is reserved for registration, indulging yourself in the dealers room, an opening ceremony followed by a drinks reception for gold ticket holders, and a themed party for everyone which the guests occasionally attend.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Secondly, these evening events are another difference between US and UK events.\u00a0 Whilst Creation have regularly had a Cabaret night at their events, Massive Events have always had themed evening parties which are included in everyone\u2019s ticket. \u00a0This year, Friday\u2019s party theme was an IOA Ambassadors Reception, Saturday\u2019s a Primitive Worlds party and Sunday\u2019s was \u2018Lost In Space: Arrival on the Destiny\u2019. \u00a0One of the great aspects of these parties is Con Dancing, where the attendees get up on the dance floor and dance away to favourites such as \u2018Doctoring The TARDIS\u2019, \u2018Star Trekking\u2019, \u2018YMCA\u2019 and \u20185,6,7,8\u2019.\u00a0 Creation seems to be adopting more of these evening events with the introduction of karaoke nights to accompany their cabaret which can only be fantastic.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The convention kicked off properly at 9am on Saturday, with most of the guests in the main hall at their desks for autographs and one guest stepping out at a time in order to do their professional photo shoots with the fans.\u00a0 The afternoon was reserved for guest talks and quizzes, there were three slots, two with all four guests on stage and one with David Blue on his own.\u00a0 The programme worked very well, especially considering that most of the time the four guests were on stage at the same time, with a good balance of conversation between them and answering of fan questions.\u00a0 I have to admit that I do not remember much from the panels as I was busy clicking away with my camera!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Chevron<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A major buzz for me at this convention was that I was invited up on stage to participate in the quiz with the guests!\u00a0 I\u2019ve always been told never to volunteer for something if you don\u2019t know what it involves, however, I couldn\u2019t pass up the opportunity to do something like this with some of my favourite actors!\u00a0 And so I jumped up on stage with another fan and was put on Torri and Corin\u2019s team while another two lucky fans joined David and Rainbow as the opposition\u2019s team. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The quiz was made up of three parts, the first was Stargate Pictionary, where each team member draw a clue at random and then tried to draw it well enough for their team mates to guess.\u00a0 Torri started off fairly well, however when we failed in the first couple of guesses, she started drawing something else entirely!\u00a0 Sedgewick!\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t the clue, but she felt like drawing her!\u00a0 We eventually guessed what she was meant to be drawing, a Kino, and she thanked David for describing it to her earlier since she had no idea what it was!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The second part was acting out scenes from the show.\u00a0 We were split into pairs, the two fans and two actors, with one set having to guess what scene the others were portraying, including characters and episode. \u00a0Torri and Corin spent their turn hugging with Corin doing a Scottish accent, looking at us frantically as we deliberated which scene they were showing us, however we eventually guessed it as the final scene from Atlantis\u2019 \u2018Sunday\u2019.\u00a0 My fellow fan team-mate and I were given a scene from Atlantis\u2019 \u2018The Rising\u2019 between Colonel Sumner and the Wraith Queen.\u00a0 Our team guessed all but Colonel Sumner, this was extremely funny as they dragged out their guesses, while Rainbow bounced up and down in his seat with the answer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The third part of the quiz was general knowledge, where we had to shout out our code word before the other team in order to answer the question.\u00a0 I actually go<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>t into a debate with Rainbow when I answered a quote question and he disagreed because he could remember it from his script!\u00a0 Anyway, despite Rainbow<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>\u2019s comical attempts at cheating and fiddling the score, my team won, and along with the batch of Universe 8\u201d x 10\u201d glossy promotion pictures we were given! We got hugs from both Torri and Corin!<\/span><\/span>\"Chevron<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What made this convention unique was the addition to everyone\u2019s tickets of the, perhaps on reflection badly named (considering fangirls), \u2018Intimate Encounters\u2019 with each of the four main guests.\u00a0 Previously, there has been a bidding system to decide which lucky ten attendees would be able to meet the guests for a twenty minute \u2018coffee break\u2019.\u00a0 This time however, because of the attendance level for the event, Massive Events divided everyone in to eight groups and each group had an encounter with every guest.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Attendees became very excited at the prospect of the a<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>nnounced \u2018Intimate Encounters\u2019 with guests.\u00a0 Luckily, Massive Events realised these may have been inappropriately entitled and renamed them \u2018Guest Encounters\u2019 \u2013 a lucky escape for the guests!\u00a0 However, there was no need to bid on the chance for these \u2018Encounters\u2019 as Massive Events organised everyone into groups so all attendees had the opportunity to meet each guest in a more personal way.\u00a0 Personally I found these Encounters were a highlight of the whole weekend.\u00a0 If you are lucky enough to find your self in a friendly, sociable group then the guests quickly relax and will happily interact with you, however, if the group is less forthcoming, or as in my group, fans from France with limited English, then it is a perfect opportunity to \u2018hog the floor\u2019 and ask all those questions you have been bottling up!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Chevron
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Prior to the event, I was most looking forward to Torri and David\u2019s encounters, then happily found I was delighted by both Rainbow and Corin\u2019s encounters.\u00a0 Rainbow was charming and funny, filming each group as he came to the table, then he came and sat next to me. Corin came in and circled the room, touching a few people on the shoulder and greeting everyone before also sitting down next to me!\u00a0 Suffice it to say, I was a little excited!\u00a0 Rainbow spoke about how he got the audition for Aiden Ford as well as his feelings after he left the regular cast, adding that \u00a0he hadn\u2019t felt able to do conventions since then, as he found them upsetting. Rainbow also revealed that he was a huge fan of comic books, with his favourite character being. He revealed that his father had inspired this passion by having a classic set of comics fully bound in a custom hardback cover Rainbow took the time to speak in great detail with many individuals in the group.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Chevron
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Corin was utterly charming, fielding questions about both his role on Stargate and other roles in films such as S.S. Doomtrooper.\u00a0 While he said he never really regretted doing a project, he did make the tongue-in-cheek comment that he should have foretold how successful some projects would be given their name, e.g. S.S. Doomtrooper!\u00a0 However, work is work and he counts it as a learning experience. (We should all be so lucky!)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Torri was delightful, bouncing into the room with a coffee and sitting so she co<\/span><\/span>\"Chevron<\/span><\/span>uld see all the group, asking how everyone was.\u00a0 We said \u201ccold\u201d to which she replied that this wasn\u2019t cold, Canada was!\u00a0 She went around the table and asked everyone where they were from and when she got to the fans from France, she made a sincere attempt to involve them more, however found it difficult to get past the language barrier. She spoke about her recent work on Stonehenge: Apocalypse, and how she enjoyed working with Supernatural\u2019s Misha Collins, despite how funny she found it acting next to a wooden Stonehenge that wobbled every time you walked past it.\u00a0 She told us she had been very busy in her garden and walking her dog \u2018Sedgewick\u2019. Torri related the story of finding the stray dog abandoned on the streets, just skin and bones, adopted her and nursed her back to health. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Torri thought Sedge was a Whippet when she saw her, only realising later on she was in fact a Labrador mix!\u00a0 She was asked whether she would contemplate joining Twitter, but charmingly said that she couldn\u2019t imagine her life being very interesting for anyone, especially as she\u2019s mostly been gardening lately. However after much persuading from the group she said she would consider it.\u00a0 Just as she was told she had to leave, I asked a quick question which she seemed more than happy to answer, in fact, she fell back into her chair and sprawled over the table top!\u00a0 I asked whether there was any chance that we might see her in the theatre any time soon and she replied saying that she loved live theatre and would love to get back into it however it was a case of finding the time to do it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Chevron
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

David Blue was our first guest encounter of the weekend, so as you can guess, we were really excited and honoured to be the first to sit down with him.\u00a0 Having followed him since the beginning of the series on Twitter, it was great to meet the man behind the avatar, and meeting him seemed like meeting an old friend \u2013 he fitted right in with the attendees!\u00a0 He was charming and relaxed, making it hard to believe this was his first dedicated convention.\u00a0 He told us about being a geek all his life, and gave us an insight to his personal \u2018Geekdom\u2019, reeling off the names of shows he liked to watch, with his absolute favourite show being Star Trek: The Next Generation \u2013 even going so far as to have a self- designed Star Trek Murder Mystery weekend for one of his birthdays, including drink bottles covered with labels which said \u2018Synthehol\u2019!\u00a0 He said that while he was hosting the party, he went to the bathroom and had a random thought about how he would feel if he was suddenly beamed up to the Enterprise\u2019s bridge in front of Captain Picard and the whole bridge crew. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Chevron
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

No sooner had he had this thought than his entire neighbourhood blacked out and he thought that it had actually happened!\u00a0 We also talked about his roles on Ugly Betty, Moonlighting and a little bit about Stargate Universe.\u00a0 When he was asked whether he had \u2018acquired\u2019 anything from sets he had finished working on, he replied that he hadn\u2019t but he wished he had taken his character\u2019s coat from Ugly Betty and that he would like to acquire a Kino by the end of Stargate Universe.\u00a0 In view of the turbulence that ensued from the cancellation of Atlantis, and Universe\u2019s go-ahead, it was endearing to see how appreciative he was of people\u2019s support and valued their opinions of the show. The new \u2018kid-on-the-block\u2019 did a brilliant job of winning people\u2019s hearts and minds!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here endeth the first installment from the UK.\u00a0 I hope I have managed to highlight some of the <\/span><\/span>\"Click<\/a><\/span><\/span>differences between US and UK conventions and some of the excellent arrangements provided by Massive Events.\u00a0 In future I will be reporting in more detail and look forward to the next convention to which I shall boldly go!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
