Dear Kimberly;

Sorry you wont make it, it would have been nice to meet.

Forum members could wear a pinned or buttonholed red rose like our Steed. (even an imitation) Please tell members that I will be on stage and always like QAA. They should let the Anniversary web page know that, and that we are all fans. I will look out for them.

Talk soon. Raymond & Wendy.

Sounds like a great idea to me.

The Rose is a great idea. I will be looking out for member's, and Mr Austin.

Look out for Ray Austin. He is going to be one of the speaker. We have been to lectures of his on the Avengers and the other TV shows he has directed round the world, he is a mind of information about behind the scenes on Avengers and Saint stories. Austin was the stuntman and stunt coordinator before becoming a director.

Too bad they won't have streaming video to those of us who can't make it...

Does anyone know--were any of the events of the 50th anniversary taped? Or even for purchase? It all sounds so fascinating I wish I had a better glimpse into it.

It was all filmed for the university project but whether any of it will be made available to the public is highly doubtful I'm afraid.

There are odd bits here and there on YouTube and Vimeo including this:

The Strange Case of The Missing Co-Organiser

(The one that got 95% of the guests, designed the whole look of the event, provided mountains of research material for everyone to use and came up with a lot of the concepts/ideas - to say he's angry is a HUGE understatement!)
