This year, I hit HALF A CENTURY  My brilliant family - Sharon, Mum and Martin, have lashed out on sending me to the SDCC  This is a prezzie and a half! Words can't describe how I feel, especially as rumour has it, for my 51st, they're paying for me to get home  Who am I likely to see from the Shack? |

If anyone sees Bogleg wandering around the San Diego area from July 2009 through July 2010, please take pity and buy him a sandwich.  |

It's about time Artbox got their cyber finger out and sorted the web site. I need - nay, DESIRE info on show specials. This is assuming they are going to be at the show. With Inkworks going belly-up and Topps rumored not to be at the con, this is the perfect time to attract new custom.

Comic Con released hotel rooms this morning for attendees. What a mess. I know that lots of people are logging on to get rooms but there's got to be an easier way to find lodging. Hope to see some of you down there.

David & Russell To Attend Comic Con
In support of BBC AMERICA’s U.S. premiere of four Doctor Who Specials, the Doctor himself, David Tennant, will appear alongside writer/executive producer Russell T Davies at this year’s Comic-Con in San Diego. They will take part in a Doctor Who panel along with executive producer Julie Gardner and director Euros Lyn, Sunday July 26, 10:00-11:00am PT.
David will travel to Comic-Con, fresh from the Doctor Who set, having shot his final scenes as the tenth Time Lord. He and fellow panelists will discuss the latest incarnation of television’s longest running science fiction series and take questions from the floor. There will also be exclusive sneak peeks from the upcoming specials.
Fans can visit the BBC AMERICA booth (#3629) to capture their own photograph alongside part of the Doctor Who set - as well as purchase exclusive merchandise including David Tennant figures.
Fans of BBC AMERICA’s highest rated show ever, Torchwood, which will have just completed the five-part special, Children of Earth, will get to chat with the stars and makers of the show first-hand. Just 48 hours after the last episode, the show makes a return visit to Comic-Con with a panel featuring star John Barrowman, writer/executive producer Russell T Davies, executive producer Julie Gardner and director Euros Lyn, Sunday July 26, 2:15-3:45pm PT.
As part of the same panel, Sunday July 26, 2:15-3:45pm PT, catch the talent from BBC AMERICA’s most buzzed about new sci fi drama, Being Human. Creator and writer, Toby Whithouse, plus lead actors Russell Tovey, Lenora Crichlow and Aidan Turner, talk about the inspiration for the show and what it’s like to play three twenty-somethings with secret double-lives – as a werewolf, a vampire and a ghost. All four panelists will be signing exclusively at the BBC AMERICA booth, Saturday July 25, 3:00-4:00pm PT.
Cult comedy favorite and BAFTA-nominated, The Mighty Boosh, comes to Comic-Con for the first time to celebrate the airing of all three seasons on Adult Swim, and the BBC’s DVD release, just two days before the convention begins. Inspired by the Perrier Comedy Award-winning live comedy show, creators-stars Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding, along with actors Michael Fielding, Rich Fulcher and Dave Brown, will be on stage to discuss the magical, bizarre and exciting world of The Boosh, Friday, July 24, 4:45-5:45pm. The hit UK comedy series follows crazy zookeepers Howard Moon and Vince Noir and was described by The San Jose Mercury News as “an acid-trip fantasy-comedy [that] is seriously deranged and seriously funny.”
Fans can also catch exclusive BBC AMERICA screenings during the convention with back to back episodes of Doctor Who and Torchwood. Key talent from both shows introduce the last episode of the five part series Torchwood: Children of Earth and a U.S. premiere viewing of Doctor Who: Planet of the Dead, the first of four specials starring David Tennant.
Underground Toys (#3949) will be selling their entire Doctor Who and Torchwood lines of toys and novelty items. In addition, this year they will once again introduce new limited edition Comic-Con action figures that have never been seen before.

Weird coincidence...I booked the Gatwick Flyer (the bus to take me to the airport) and the driver there told me that his son was going. His son is the actor that plays the Werewolf in "Being Human".

As in Russell Tovey the Doctor that got away? Am so jealous that you get David and Russell T, think they should pop along to the tiny- in comparison- London Film and Comic con, although we do get Eve Myles. |

Ah, you lucky guys! I'm going to be so mad if they have SDCC exclusive cards like that Draco auto card from 08.  But then again, I'd never be able to afford a plane ticket from Hong Kong to California. (First post here but I've been lurking for a long time before I joined~ (: ) Audrey |

Yes, welcome Audrey, you are a lucky duck. Hong Kong is an awesome place to be. It was quite warm when I was there last week, I was out there for 2 weeks but only managed one day of full sun (and I was in the office for it!) *sigh* Welcome to the Shack! |
