It was Collectormania time down in Milton Keynes again this weekend, and me and Amanda took my folks and brother along again, as they enjoyed it last time. Although it has been moved from the MK shopping centre to the temporary (and very difficult to find) location of the MK Dons stadium, it doesn't seem to have hindered business. After braving the deluge of rain in the morning, it thankfully brightened up in the afternoon, and turned into a pretty good day.
The two guests we were after this time were Nathan Fillion and Phillip Glenister. Both were very friendly and we came away with a signed Serenity poster and a Life On Mars print to hang somewhere on my by now rather crowded walls. Leonard Nimoy was also there, but the queues were huge and his security seemingly on loan from the US president, so we didn't even catch a glimpse of the pointy-eared one.
We also caught up briefly with Ade, Rachael and Bri who'd also braved the elements. We popped over to the shopping centre in the afternoon to grab some lunch (and pick up some a couple of discounted Supernatural books from the Works - the official guide, one of the novels and the graphic novel, all for under a fiver) and were back for about five. Next stop: the London Comic and Movie Con to get another signature on the Serenity poster...
And some pics...
