Glad you guys all had a wonderful time and Big Finish was represented so well. Saw a couple people I know on Twitter were also there.

Agree! Such a busy Fest! I expected to reconnect with many friends from past Fests, and especially from my stay in Newport at Collinwood over Halloween, and with the huge crowd and full program, it just didn't happen! And we had to leave so quickly after the banquet today so I could drive home. I just arrived and it's now 10pm! After drinks late last night, Robert reminded me to get a pic with Matthew today. I had left my phone in my room because only came down to go outside for a late smoke, when I saw the BF guys in the hotel lounge. I wanted to make it a point to do that today, as well as to get one with R. and David....was halfway up the NY State Thruway when I thought of it! Ugh!!! And I never did interview you for the podcast. So nice to meet you though, let's do it again. X Like Rob feeling like the 50th has always passed him by, I feel like I missed HUGE opportunities for pics! Aargh!!!

Matthew Waterhouse is so fine! Pictures don't do him justice.

Matthew Waterhouse is so fine! Pictures don't do him justice. He is very photogenic, isn't he? Very handsome fellow who's lost none of his boyish cuteness. Also very talented - I'm really glad he's doing more things for Big Finish, and that he certainly seems to be having a good time with Dark Shadows. He is fantastic in Blood & Fire (as is everyone).

A few more of the Big Finish guys. Bottom: Donna Wandrey (Roxanne Drew, Mrs. Franklin in Return to Collinwood). Wandrey has been adamant before and was again this time about refusing to work for any organisation that doesn't pay Screen Actors Guild wages (though I don't know if anyone's asked her to appear in Big Finish audios). I would love to propose story ideas for (1) a 1970 Sebastian Shawn-Roxanne story, (2) 1840 Quentin-Gabriel Collins-Roxanne-Samantha-Randall Drew story, (3) c2000 Mrs. Franklin-Mrs. Johnson short story lead-in for Return to Collinwood. Maybe the wages for a full day of recording would meet her standards. I met with the same resistance from Donna Wandrey when I met her last year, but I got the impression that she really didn't know what the audio dramas are, how they are produced, who's been involved, etc....I should think she'd love to recreate Roxanne or Mrs. Franklin again, along with a host of new characters, but to each his/her own! She IS lovely though isn't she? I think that all the DS ladies are aging gracefully and beautifully. They're gorgeous--and every one of them still has her figure! None have "fallen to the flesh" as is so prevalent here!

That's the first of two podcasts from the Festival. This one contains the panel Davy, Matthew and I did. And the second will be me speaking to folk at the event.

You guys did an excellent job presenting at the panel. I enjoyed it very much even though I'm familiar with the range, and it was also very good to hear audience members already familiar with the Big Finish audios themselves. I was happy to hear how well you all got it across about the excitement and anticipation with serialized releases - waiting three days to hear the next part like that can be so very difficult if you're hearing it after the whole story is out there.
