Hey, really enjoyed the vlog. I've never done Liverpool Comic Con but wish to in the future along with LFCC and any others in the UK!!I shall look forward to watching the Sunday vlog after this!! :)
Lovely lovely meeting you guys again at Matt Smith haha (Annie and Robbie)! It’s so interesting watching vlogs like these and seeing other people’s POVs of these events. I’m shocked at the David Harbour VQ stuff like I’m surprised staff weren’t aware of something like that?? But I’m glad Gareth met David!! I’m the same with Monopoly, I will defend Monopoly until the day I die but they could always improve of organisation and I think staff need to communicate more!! I’m sure they said after the last event in November they’d been in discussions about using the Arena but I guess that depends if there’s an event on! The Matt Smith debacle will stay with me forever hahaha!! But what you said at the end was spot on, I really hope they use the time slots/VQ better in October!
I have been going to Texas Frightmare Weekend in Dallas. They sell VIP ie Diamond passes, that get you a in a hour earlier. But they only have a certain number to sell. You get other perks as well, but gives the majority of people a fair chance in queues.
Charles! It was lovely to meet you and make a new friend! We loved hearing about your experiences at Texas Frigthmare! We hope you have an incredible time going to your next con! Hopefully monopoly events will get there act together with how they work things and how they manage the diamond passes! All the best! x
Oh wow all those people and the 2 buildings makes my anxiety go up. Is that normal for Liverpool comic con do you know? As I was hoping to visit next year but I don't think I would cope with all of that to be stressed. I did love seeing seeing Gareth's face after he met Matt Smith, I'm so happy for him. Him & David Tennant are on the top of my 2 to meet hopefully one day.
I really enjoyed the Saturday vlog. Looking forward to the Sunday one. I am surprised Monopoly never done timeslots for huge guests for like David Harbour or Corey Feldman. I think they only introduced the timeslots last October at FTLOH. They should have stuck with that. Its like what Gareth said with the staff who brings the diamond pass through to the front, they should have told the people in the front. I mean it would annoy me really badly with it if I was a normal entry or early bird ticket customer. I mean they was alright at FTLOH last year with me and my partner when we went to see certain guests and we had to keep asking for staff to lead us to certain guests and all that while they said "Excuse me,. is it alright if you could wait for a bit as these are diamond pass holders" or something along them lines. But the only trouble was when I had to ask for a member of staff there was no sight of them on a few occasions. Anyway I know its the same thoughts as what you and Gareth had said. As I said can't wait for Sunday's vlog to be uploaded :)
Could'nt agree with you guys more, I flew over from Ireland to be there and I thought I had a fairly good plan before I got there but it all went out the window once you get in. The queue for David Harbour was a complete free for all. They should have put up some barriers to have an orderly queue. I asked simple questions like which building a guest was located and couldnt get an answer. Also the fact some entrances/exits were only accessible by diamond passes was ridiculous. It seemed like it was a little over capacity...
Hey Mark! That's insane! This is what I was saying to gareth, you could literally plan the hell out of your day to the smallest detail but they basically dictate how your day is going to go and that's awful! I couldnt get over how mad it was around davids area and yet once you were in his room it was perfect and a great experience. There was no policing or anything and the thing that made me the most angry was the poor kids being pushed and shoved about. Absolutely disgusting
In the place where you were going to see Michelle Gomez I never knew that place was there haha it was so packed haha! bit manic I’m going again in October again
Hi Guys, it was lovely to meet you both! 😊❤ Thanks for mentioning us in the video! It was super busy and I agree virtual queue tickets should have been in place. I tried to get Coreys autograph nearly all day Saturday. The queue was cut twice due to lateness/schedule; had to leave in order to meet other people. Same for Jamie yesterday; his queue was cut and staff unwilling at first to give virtual queue ticket. It felt like a free for all in some, not all of the queues. Glad you got to meet the celebs you wanted too 😊🎉 xx
Alicia! Hello my love! Not at all it was our pleasure and we loved meeting you both! We heard some awful stories about Corey and his schedule! I adore Lost Boys but its put me right off meeting him! I just don't understand how some of the staff were so incompetent and the communication was next to non! This absolutely needs to improve for future events! The guests were stunning and meeting incredible people such as yourselves really made our con! Thank you! xxx
That is awful “helpers” were like that and you had a bad experience with organisation. I give you both a huge hug and love and send positive vibes for tomorrow loves ❤xxxxx
Hey! Photo timetables will go up about two weeks before the event…where it says 9am is just when the event starts so nothing to worry about there :-) hope that helps
Hi, Do you know if you can bring something in to be signed? Meeting Jensen Ackles at the one in October and would love to bring the 1:6th figure I have of Dean Winchester to be signed by him
Showmasters is brilliant for diamond passes I got diamond passes for Jodie Whitaker David Tennant and Matt Smith last year London was great and I got diamond pass for showmasters Birmingham For John simm the master for Only £70 events should be fair and not oversell and also the should limit autographs to 1per person then there wouldn't be as long a wait
For sure! And that’s the thing we said, we fully appreciate and respect people have diamond passes but they were just completely over sold and handled so poorly over the weekend! Also alot of the staff completely disregarded anyone else who didn’t have a diamond pass! Shocking! Thank you so much for watching the video! X
@@Loucifer96 your welcome and meeting David Tennant was my highlight I grew up watching him then they announced Matt Smith and I was like so happy this was at London winter Comic con and tonight I screamed with happiness because mandip Gill is going to em con in Nottingham along with Peter Davison
@Loucifer The Diamond Pass people frustrated me a lot when I were in the queues to meet the Red Dead cast for autographs. A lot of them didn't have pre-booked tickets and I felt it was unfair that they bombarded the queues with questions for the staff, who were already dealing with non-diamond pass people. A lot of them got frustrated with waiting and decided to move across to a different guest as soon as they finished with their selfies at the table. And then came back as soon as they were done. It just felt frustrating that me and my partner were 1 away from meeting the guest, to instantly being 4-5 away due to diamond passes.
Photos, on the other hand, were handled really well in my opinion. They were really quick and efficient and weren't time consuming, even with big queues with diamond passes. Such as me and my partner having a photo with Michelle Gomez, but a panel in 30 minutes to go to. It only took 5 minutes in the queue and we were off to the panel after. It was great. It just sucks that autographs are the only way to spend real time with the guest, but that requires a queue up to at least 1 hour if you aren't there early. All in all, I enjoyed the 2 days I spent at the Comic Con, but the queues weren't fun.
Hey guys! Loving your vlogs! Where did Gareth get the protective sleeves for his autographs?

Hi going to the 2024 one did you notice if there was any hot toy predators for sale please
I’ve ordered entry tickets for 11 I was just wondering just in case I order another photo and it’s before 11 I’m just confused
Hey! Photo timetables will go up about two weeks before the event…where it says 9am is just when the event starts so nothing to worry about there :-) hope that helps
Hi, Do you know if you can bring something in to be signed? Meeting Jensen Ackles at the one in October and would love to bring the 1:6th figure I have of Dean Winchester to be signed by him
You can, i'm meeting him as well (see you in the queue). I checked the website and you can bring personal items to be signed, so no issue!
Oh Just seen myself. Oh the horror of it.

Don't think for one moment Shitemasters don't over sell gold passes.
