I should explain I don't think either projects are doing anything underhand, it's just a bit cart-before-the-horse to announce something on the 'net and then nothing. It does create cynicism when the trail goes cold.

Absolutely right.

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself - I'm Dexter - and I'll be running the Avengers event on 10th October.

My company - Fantom Films - organise regular Doctor Who events in Chiswick and we are expanding using the same successful format to celebrate The Avengers.

There will be approximately 10 guests in attendance from both sides of the camera who will take part in stage panels and answer questions from the audience - followed by an oportunity to get their autographs.

Tickets are £35, which includes access to panels, a sounvenir programme and two autographs per guest. Extra autographs are £5 each and photos/merchandise will also be available for sale.

The first guest is now announced and others will follow in the forthcoming weeks. I can assure you there was nothing underhand - we want to get ahead and announce are intensions for an avengers event to start spreading the word!

Any questions or guest suggestions are welcome - and if you'll allow me, I'll pop back and give you news as and when I have it!

Cheers,

Dexter

Very interesting first guest, too. Murray Melvin. A fascinating career encompassing The Avengers, Diary of a Nobody, Jonathan Creek, Torchwood (in which he was one of the few saving graces) and collaborations with the likes of Ken Russell and Stanley Kubrick.

For me Murray Melvin will always be Geoffrey in A Taste of Honey. A brave role to play in the early 60s.

Peter J. Elliot now announced too. Stuntman and (I always find this funny) Diana Rigg's stunt double.

I only remember Billy Westley being mentioned as Diana Rigg male stunt double. I didn't know there had been others.

It's so nice that they gave other people a turn in the leather--Billy couldn't hog it all for himself.
