A grand day at Earls Court 2’s London Film and Comic Con marred only by the absence of Graeme Garden. Sadly, Graeme was severely delayed on a flight back from Menorca and couldn’t attend the signing. But Tim and Bill enjoyed the experience, being interviewed on stage by Robert and interacting with the weird and wonderful citizens of the LFCC. As usual the most surreal moments happened in the Green Room: thanks to the likes of Claudia Black, Christopher Lloyd, Margot Kidder and Peter Davison. Here’s to the next Showmasters event.

A reminder that Robert will be attending the London Film and Comic Con at Earls Court 2 on Saturday 19th July. An outstanding line-up of guests including David Warner, Charles Dance, John Hurt, Peter Davison, Sylvester McCoy and Christopher Lloyd, are joined by a full reunion of the Goodies. A talk with the legendary trio will be hosted by Robert from 11am while, in-between signing duties, an official photograph session will also take place.

Robert was a guest of the British Comedy Society, alongside Robert Lindsay, Zoe Wanamaker and other cast and crew, at an unveiling of a blue plaque to mark the 100th episode of popular BBC situation comedy ‘My Family’. Situated in Pinewood Studio’s Hall of Fame, the event was also attended by delightful BCS director Jenny Hanley. Hugs and laughs assured!

Robert is attending the ‘Bad Wolf’ convention in Birmingham this coming weekend; along with his Big Finish Doctor, Colin Baker, Fifth Doctor, Peter Davison, the Doctor’s daughter, Georgia Moffett, and many other great guests from Doctor Who and Torchwood. On Saturday 19th July Robert will be at the Earls Court London Film and Comic Con, representing those glorious Goodies Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie.

It’s lovely to see BBC2 paying fitting 50th anniversary tribute to the Carry On series although rather than two factually-challenged, albeit beautifully acted, dramas wouldn’t an affectionate documentary and a screening of Carry On Sergeant been rather more apt bed-fellows for classics Carry On Camping and Carry On Matron?
