Sparkling Apple cider for us teetotalers.
If you're a teetotaller, don't ask for cider in Britain. It's more alcoholic than beer!

I'll stick with coffee, thanks.

Wow, this event is really coming together.

I just noticed even Jon Rollason is attending. Oh and John Carson, one of my favourite Avengers actors.

Great idea to have Paul O'Grady along - someone get him to join this forum:D

Will any of the event be officially recorded for posterity?

This is going to be one hell of a weekend

I've registered with the blog site so that I don't miss any announcements (and will post them here as well of course!

)

At the Fantom Films Avengers event last year, Janet Hargreaves shared an interesting anecdote about working with him on the episode they made together.

I was especially excited about Jon Rollason as he's pretty reclusive - he even was back in '62, preferring pottery to people.
Now I have to find $1000 to get to the event...

They ought to record it, I'd buy a copy.

Damn these antipodes, damn this tyranny of distance!

I have received an e-mail from Ray Austin today, telling me he will, as you all know, be attending and speaking at the 50th Anniversary celebration. He seems excited about attending and who can blame him?!

If you are attending, try to say hi to him. I'm sure he'll appreciate and love seeing the forum members.
