OK... I must admit my negative feelings towards Showmasters are a little bit warmer and positive now after last weekend's London Film & Comic Con, for which they invited Claudia Black after cancelling her appearance at June's Chevron 7 convention and she was signing autographs and talking to her fans, and taking photo shoots with them for both days. I met Claudia previously almost 6 years ago, also in UK, at a one day Farscape convention organized by another cons organizers - Wolf Events. Claudia said, on Sunday when she was signing my items, that she remembered me from Wolf Events' con... this was lovely :) I gave her a small gift, a digital version of 2008 Vala/Daniel calendar I made myself at the end of last year and a copy of a very beautiful CD I've been listening to recently, I hope she'll like the music. It was also wonderful to meet my Farscape friend, Wendy whom I've known for over 6 years now and it was great to put some other Terra Firma names to faces. ProwlerPilotGirl - Gina - was wearing Aeryn's costume on Saturday, the green top and the boots were the original pieces from "Farscape", and Vala's outfit from the beginning of Stargate SG-1's ninth season on Sunday. And her friends were wearing other SG-1 team members' uniforms. They were extremely popular on Sunday and everybody was taking pics of them. Even the photographer, who was taking photo shoots with Claudia Black and other guests, offered them a photo session at the place of the photo shoots. This was really great. I hope they're going to post photos online soon! :)
At the end of my short conversation with Claudia I said that I hope for our next meeting to be earlier than in another 6 years time... she smiled and said that it's definitely gonna happen sooner, especially that she has family in UK and I'm pretty sure that she wants her children to spend a lot of time with their British cousins (Claudia is Australian, but resides in LA currently with her family).
On Sunday I also attended Patrick Stewart's talk. Now it would be great to see Claudia in the movie with him...
