I went and it was great. Helped no end by some vodka and an ensuing blur and slight stagger. Met Furman and Senior - really nice guys. As were the whole Titan team and a TF collector guy we spoke to who also does concept art stuff on the new live actions movies.

For some reason they had half the cast of Quadrophenia, Danny Dyer and a small battalion of leather clad men re-enacting battles.

It almost went Fear and Loathing, but I steered clear of the ethanol and dancing monkeys and kept to safer ground, watching the Hobbit from Lost and the distant bobbing head of Tom Baker from a distance.

Looked like a great line up there. Who had the biggest queue?

I'd say Tom Baker, Mads Mikkelsen and Billy West seemed to be doing the best, with Dominic Monaghan and Robert Englund just behind. I went on Saturday so I missed the Patrick Stewart and the cast of Heroes on Sunday, who I imagine did pretty well.

I didn’t queue for anyone myself since I don’t see the point of signatures, but its fun to celeb spot: a couple of years back I geeked out when Michael Biehn walked right past, and Jenette Goldstein (Vasquez) waved at me from her table.

I don't like meeting famous people in case I get disappointed and/or I make a **** of myself.

True story - I was in a shoe shop in Oxford with Billie Piper last week. I didn't say hi.

You, sir, are my hero.
