2009 : Sometimes You Just Gotta Say What the Fuck...and Go For It.

[lv2bliberal]

Just an update since I'm paying for this damn thing and I haven't posted anything for a while...

Have I mentioned that this year is my year of Cons? Gallifrey One in February...twas Brilliant.  TorchSong in June. Followed closely by San Diego Comic Con (unless there's no Torchwood presence there, in which case I'll pass and save the dough)... and

The age range at the Hub events seems to go from 6- 60 - its doubtful you'll be out of place.

Don't go expecting too much though - he's already announced 5 guests and I can't actually see them inviting Gareth to the next one as that would make 3 events in a row and I think the move is towards new series 3 guests over actors they've had previously.

Also prepare yourself for John not to be there all weekend and possibly not at the cocktail party.

OK, so I come in a bit under the 60. Good to know. Thanks. :-)

Looking at the list so far, it seems they'll need a few more guests of the testosterone variety, although Eve or Naoko would be great. Correct me if I'm wrong, but they wouldn't actually put the little girl on with the full panel would they? That'd certainly cramp their style...and the "sauciness" is the whole reason I'm coming.

No illusions of how long John will be there, as long as I get to see at least one full on raunchy panel and one filthy skit with perhaps some snogs, or at least some serious groping, I'll walk away happy.;-)

But honestly...Can they actually call it a Torchwood weekend without at least a couple/three of the core cast members there for the whole party? That would seem a bit disingenuous. A weekend of guest players does Not a Torchwood con make, and whoever else appears in Season 3, they're still only guest players.

They've got Mr Torchwood himself - John Barrowman, two main guest stars (Daniela and Beth), the little girl and a series 3 cast member - of course they can call it a Torchwood convention! No reason why they wouldn't put the girl on the panel. They had "young Jack" on one - they would just probably tone it down a bit for her

I guess it's because I'm coming from the states I have a different perspective...lacking the myriad of opportunities to see John and the rest of the cast that you guys seem to have on a monthly basis. Over here we're lucky if we get to see any of them twice a year. None of this is dull or old hat to us.

Guess I'll have to go put in my two cents on that poll, if it'll let me. :-)

looking forward to meeting you at Hub3! It'll be as much fun as you want it to be... (I've been at 1 and 2 and whilst having Kai/Tom/Matt/Gareth/Burn etc back would be great, at least we'll meet John and get a picture with him!)

and where would I be able to find that transcript?

[lv2bliberal]

Don't get me wrong, I'm coming for John, it's just that I'm hoping for at least one or two more of the main cast as well as that bunch of guest players.

If you email me at info@madwoodie.com I'll email back the transcript. I'm not sure how else to send it, although, I guess I could just post it in my journal. Never thought of that before. Perhaps I'll try it with the one I have done already and see how it works. If it does, I'll post the rest the same way as I finish them. :-)
