Collectormania 12

So today I found myself in Milton Keynes, in England. Milton Keynes is an odd place, a new build town/city that unlike 99% of all other English towns, was actually planned using rulers so most roads are straight, with an addiction to countless roundabouts.

Collectormania itself is a signing fair, randomly placed in a shopping centre/mall - its a weird affair where the geeks meet the normals in an everyday shopping experience. You can be doing your normal weekend shop and find yourself walking past a poor mans spiderman, who's looking for the toilets.

One of the reasons for my visit was to see Kevin Sorbo, Captain Dylan Hunt - yes, that's the link and why I'm even mentioning my day... its all so I can publish my picture with the giant.. honest I'm not that short really, Kevin is just very very very very tall!

SAR not SARS....

One is a cool and anticipated tv show, the other a icky virusy thingie that no one anticipates (oh no, now having Monty Python flashbacks with Spanish Inquisitions...) ahem... SAR is a term all Woolvett fans following Gordon's new show will have to become familiar with over the coming months, short for 'Search and Rescue'. I mention this solely because this week has brought about the first fansite for the show 'SARCentral.com', and as the news about SAR starts to filter out, and once the show begins to air next March, I'm guessing this site will become the new black (or something like that), so bookmark it now and proudly claim in months to come how you were there at the beginning, as we predict a hit show in the making! Obviously, Wbros is never one to shirk responsibility and will be reporting on the shows rumours and news as they are heard, visit the Search and Rescue Rumours page to find out the lastest gossip.

I finally managed to write my review for Everythings Gone Green that you can read here I tried not to be too down on the film, because I did enjoy it but from a Woolvett perspective, and lets face it - its probably the reason any of us would watch it, it was disapointing - not because of the acting I hasten to add, but the way in which GMW's character was treated, in the sense Spike just ceased to exist about two thirds in for no reason.

This entry is very Gordon orientated, not got much to report on the Jaimz front other than a cryptic message he sent me that I have a team of decipherers (is that even a word?) right now trying to figure out, as soon as they do I'll let you know ;) But I am very happy with the response there has been to the very excellant music videos Jaimz kindly offered to the site - since they've been added they have been viewed over 200 times, now if only I could get more people to leave their comments to reflect this great interest I'd be even more happy!

so just remember SAR not Sars, and everything will be ok :)

so far so good...

as promised, I'm remembering the blog and thought it would be a good opportunity to share some cool stuff I've stumbled upon lately (and keep up that myth that all I do all day is hunt high and low for all things Woolvett online... well now Hannah's at Uni, someone has to!)

Came across this in a blog by the author of the Blood Ties novels, Tanya Huff, her books are now a tv series that if you'd paid attention to this site at all you'd know GMW guest starred in - I think the fourth episode titled 'Gifted' - seems he has a secret fangirl if you read her blog and I quote...

"Before I say anything about last night's episode, I have three words for you: Gordon Michael Woolvett. When I realized he was playing Sara's father I gave a most fangirl-like squee. You see I was a huge Andromeda fan for the first season and a half – right up until Robert Hewlett Wolfe left – and Gordon's Seamus Harper was, for me, the one consistent bright spot as the series devolved."
