Ok Star Trek London, who's going.
I got my ticket this morning for all 3 days.
http://www.startreklondon.com/
All 5 captains will be there. Can't wait.
-
I'm going for two days but if all goes well I might do for the 3 day one. Looks great!
-
If I get a job between now and then, and I can afford it, I might go. Never ever been to anything like that before
-
Count me in, need to sort out actually getting together and meeting up
-
Curse you brits...and people with money.
-
You know its not that bad money wise but then I supose you'll have to factor in Hotel costs and food plus travel. Then again its my birthday in July so hopefully that'll be an extra boost. :D
-
I'll either take the train or ride my bike in.
I live in Reading so just one express stop to paddington station.
-
damn i wish i could go, doubt ill get the money for it unless i save my birthday money, but even then im not sure id be able to go due to college... id better talk to my dad about it.
-
I can't tell you how jealous I am of you Brits! I'm in California and a long ways away.
Have fun!!
-
Well if we can arrange a meet up there, I'm certainly up for it.
Wonder if they'll have a Quark's bar.
-
That would be quite nice, hope they have some bridges thier too. :D
-
My ticket did state a picture taken on the bridge so they must have at least one. Most likely the Galaxy bridge from vegas :( Not the beauty that was the TWOK bridge.
-
Hmmm, if they do have a TWOK bridge grab some reference pics, you never know! :funny
-
Hmm. Possibly. Maybe definitely possibly I'm sure.
-
My brother the BASTARD is there getting situated at LSE (and going to STL) while I'm an ocean away festering in jealousy!
-
Just booked a personal photo with Mr Shatner. Can't wait. :bow:
-
Awesome baz!
Lucky sonofa...
-
Just booked my Hotel.
Staying at the travellodge at London airport. less than a mile from the venue and costing me ?107 for the Friday and Saturday.
There is a travellodge at the Excel but they want ?20 a night more!
I've checked and the Excel center has a bag checking room.
-
so no illeage smuggeling of tribbles lol
-
No I needed some where to store my spare self sealing stem bolts. :hithead:

I'm glad to see some of the Enterprise cast there. May not have had the best plot, but the characters were awesome. Say what you will about Captain Archer, but Scott Bakula is great. You Brits are so lucky to have so many stars at your conn. ;)

Totally agree! I don't care what anyone says, I LOVED ENTERPRISE!

Really wish I had the money to go see this. I doubt it's very common to have ALL 5 of the Star Trek Captain's together at a convention.
-
Can we compile a list of all those who are going?
-
Well I'm there for the full 3 days (and nights in near by hotel)
-
ill possibly be going, will have to see how much money i get for my birthday.
In other news, Alice Krige (The Borg Queen) will be attending the event.
-
i wanna go!
-
It would have been nice to go, (not that far either), but I'm in Taiwan during those dates. ;_;
Those of you who are going be sure to grab plenty of pictures ^^;
-
In other news, Alice Krige (The Borg Queen) will be attending the event.
Also Martha Hackett - Seska and Mac Alaimo - Dukat
-
There are sure a hell of a lot of actors going!
-
something to think about:mabey they're hanging around for the Olympics, too?
-
Right just about a month to go, whos going so we can arrange a meet up.
I'm there all 3 days.
-
I'm going to be there for the 3 days, check into the hotel on the Friday and leave on the Monday. Staying at the Ibis Excel hotel.
-
I'm in the local travel lodge leaving Sunday night.
-
Which would be the best day for a meet up. I'm still undecided whether to go to any of the parties.
-
Either day is good for me, was hoping there would be a few more BCC attendees.
Not sure about the parts, definatly won't be going to the Klingon Ball and undecided on the Starfleet party.
-
I was leaning more towards the TNG one myself. Since you're not going to the Klingon one Friday night would be a good time to meet up, leaves it open for if we go to the other one. I'll probably decide whether or not to go to it while I'm there.
I was hoping for more people going as well.
-
I'm wondering if there is anyone else going who may need a room while there. I'm on my own so have space if anyone is interested.
-
My Wife is crashing with me so my room is full.
-
My room is already booked, looking for a roommate though which will help with costs.
-
I can't make because of unforeseen circumstances at home, I had to sell my ticket to a friend of mine. I'm pissed off beyond belief. :(
Hope you guys have a good time and don't forget to take pictures! :D
-
That a pisser.
Just had an email tickets are on there way :yay:
-
I've not had that yet, hopefully will have the notification soon.
-

*Stolen* :P
Have fun when you get there!
-
Found someone to share a room with so now staying at the Premier Inn Beckton. Going to save me about ?200 which is good. Decided to cave in and having a photoshoot with Walter Koenig.
-
Cool. I'm booked in for a pick with Shatner on Sunday.
-
well ive confirmed that im going on the saturday, however due to me being a poor b****rd, im unable to buy any of the extra tickets.... which is a real shame but at least i get to go i suppose :idk:
-
Looks like Saturday will be the most popular day for a BCC meet up.
-
Seems like it, Saturday would be fine.
Got my Combadges to wear for the Con today and finished painting them.

Interesting design [like it]
-
It's the Star Trek Renegades design, only had a very small image to work from and that is how it turned out.

-
Only a week to go now, looking forward to it.
-
Me too my first Con since 1996.
-
I'm still waiting for my tickets, they are leaving it very late getting some of them sent out.

I think, I'd call and ask [being in Texas I'm envious]
-
They put a message on the site yesterday saying that they would be shipping the last of the tickets out in the next 2 days. There have also been a few people who never got a notification email saying their tickets were sent out and still got them. If they haven't arrived by Monday I'll be getting in touch with them.
-
Got mine over a week ago, surprised they still have some outstanding.

-
I'm not, for some reason they started sending out individual day tickets for Sat and Sun days before sending out ones for the 3 days. I'd have thought you send out the ones which are needed earlier first.

But but that would be Logicall :funny
-
My tickets arrived today! :D now to sort out the travel plans and im all set!
-
I decided to go ahead and send a message and got back a generic response saying that the tickets had been printed and would be sent out soon and would be notified when they were. That was yesterday so if they haven't sent them then I won't get them on Monday. I'm definately going to get back in touch on Monday if I don't get any notifications from them.
-
My pass has finally arrived this morning. Got Eddie Paskey for the Autograph. Not long now, we still need to work out when we're going to meet up.
-
Not long now less than 24 hours.
For the Saturday meet up I would say 3pm by the Enterprise model. Seems the only low point in the day.
to make things easier here is a photo of me.
(http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/226742_8828678802_8991_n.jpg)
See ya there :)
-
3pm sounds fine. Here's a pic of me (on the right :funny)

-
The day has finally arrived. Lazy morning then train into London for the opening ceremony.
-
Wishful thinking, but I don't suppose there will be any live streams of any of this, available on the net (for those of us who are unable to attend in person) ?
-
Judging by the admission prices and the fact you have to pay extra to get into the talks then I'd say no.
But I'm sure there will be some footage on Youtube at somepoint.
-
Take pictures!
-
Lots of them :)
-
For those of you who have other halfs that are not in to trek then there is a fire and rescue event in the hall next door. Me I'm loving the mass of girls in tos uniforms.
-

Take pix of them for me, please!

Btw, I hear there was a Klingon wedding there.
-
A friend of mine just posted a picture on Facebook of his copy of "A Stich in Time", now signed by Andrew Robinson. So jealous.
-
Okay, apparently John Barrowman (Captain Jack from Torchwood/Dr Who) decided that since Mr Bakula hadn't had an embarrassing fan moment, he would jump in front of him, pull his trousers down and ask him to sign his arse cheek! :D

Just came out of Scott's talk apparently he signed it Patrick Stewart was here.

Love that picture of the six captains!
-
Avery Brooks looks badass enough that he could beat the crap out of the others.
-
Baz, you'd make a good captain. Read Shakespeare much?
-
Sat reading to himself "whether it is nobler of the mind to..." Looks up and sees farshots post.
-
I always thought reading Shakespeare was a requirement. :funny :funny
-
The world record attempt for the most people in Star Trek costumes went well. Jst managed to beat it.
http://www.treknews.net/2012/10/21/world-record-broken-destination-star-trek-london/
I was in the second row and was waiting for ages for everyone to be let in. You can see me just behind the2 in red on the front row.
-
A friend of mine who lives in Scotland (he's the producer/writer/director/star/etc. of the fan series Star Trek: Intrepid) attended that event with his wife and daughter. He and the missus, of course, were in uniform, and I think the little'un had a commbadge. She's a Fleeter in training, heh.
