Collectormania

After hearing that the event, Collectormania, is coming to Milton Keynes, not far from us ya know, I thought we'd better give it a visit. And low and behold we arrived, to a fairly packed car park and even more so was the centre:mk was packed to the rim. Cue mad men, mad ladies and their children and mad fans scattered across the complex. Nice selection of shops but you won't catch me buying a £18 t-shirt with a crummy logo on it, oh no, but you might catch me trying to grab a deal for a DVD or a second-hand plushie, Elmo anyone? HAHA.

We had the pleasure of acquiring Eve Myles aka Gwen Cooper of TV's 'Torchwood' 's autograph, what a lovely lady who looked so happy to be doing such an event and also looked like she was bricking it! And saw John Barrowman himself not too far away, didn't even see many others, since there were hundreds of fans surrounding those of James Marsters (Spike from 'Buffy' and 'Torchwood's Captain John) and Kai Owen ('Torchwood's Rhys), did think about dropping in on Charles whatshisface - the voice of Roger Rabbit - to sign my DVD but alas, nevermind, we did have the pleasure of gracing the presense of Jennifer Linden (Barbara in the 1960s dalek movie 'Dr Who and the Daleks' starring Peter Cushing) and Darth Vader man himself, Dave Prowse.

A nice event, spoilt by the amounts of people, ah well, must be me, being an old fart.
