The first time I met Jon Bernthal was at London’s first Walker Stalker Con in 2016, when their events were in their heyday, viewing figures for the show were pretty high, and I knew him as Shane from The Walking Dead and from The Wolf of Wall Street. Since then he’s become one of my… Read More Jon Bernthal @ For The Love of Sci Fi, December 2019
It takes a special kind of event to get me to travel to London and back after work these days now I’m queen of the early night and the early start, but the promise of seeing one of my favourite films of this year followed by a Q&A was something I couldn’t pass up. This… Read More Rocketman + Q&A with Taron Egerton and Dexter Fletcher
Here’s the second part of my New Mexico photo tour through the eyes of a Breaking Bad fanatic – and once again it’s was possible thanks to a great deal of help from friends (shoutout to Ron, Anna, Andrew, Ariana and Mary). If you read Part I then you’ll see I covered a lot of… Read More A Breaking Bad Tour of New Mexico – Part 2
Back in the days of Livejournal I’d post a lot of photos from events, conventions, Q&As etc but since neither LJ nor Flickr aren’t what they used to be I miss having a home for them. This event may have been a long time ago (September 2011) but I snapped some of my favourite ever… Read More Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – London Premiere
I was on the fence about going to this event for months, but I recently fell back into a Walking Dead spiral so the decision was made in typical “fuck it” style. Most signing events I go to are held in soulless expo halls but this was in a University, offering an abundance of loos,… Read More Wales Comic Con
My love affair with Breaking Bad is known to most of my friends – perhaps I’ll do a post about how deep that love affair goes – and one of the effects of it is a love for Bryan Cranston. In May 2014 I flew to Broadway to see him on stage in All The… Read More An Evening With Bryan Cranston
I spent several years attending nearly every event I could – Collectormania, Memorabilia, London Expo, Starfury, London Film and Comic Con – but now I’m a LOT more selective with where my money and miles take me – it’s quality over quantity. Flying to MCM Dublin for a day is easy and relatively stress-free, and… Read More Uncharted – MCM Dublin 2017
A few weeks before HBO aired Season 4 of Game of Thrones in 2014, I gave in to peer pressure and started to watch it. Mainlined 3 seasons in no time at all, fell hook, line and sinker for the damn show, and within a few weeks I’d booked a flight to Belfast to see… Read More HBO Game of Thrones Exhibition
I first heard about Shuffle Festival back in the summer of 2014 when I learned the programme included a screening of Danny Boyle’s 28 Days Later in a cemetery. Cut to three years later, and I’m volunteering at Shuffle, an annual event held in East London (the brainchild of Kate McTiernan and Lizzy Daish) to celebrate… Read More Shuffle Festival 2017
