The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

**** Not to be confused with this thread about the May Expo ****

So, in October, MCM is trying something a bit different - they will be running the Film/TV/Guest focused Memorabilia event alongside the MCM Expo animé-focused event over the same weekend in the ExCeL exhibition centre in Docklands in London. Hopefully they have booked they whole venue for this ...

This new event should have more to interest us than the usual "all-animé" Expo!

Since the hotels for the May Expo are just about booked to hell, I've taken the liberty of booking TWO hotel rooms in the London Airport Travelodge which is literally across the bridge from the venue.

Parking is £5 per 24 hours.

  • Check in: Friday 28th October
  • Check Out: Sunday 30th October
  • Average Price PER ROOM PER NIGHT: £39
  • 2x rooms, (Technically) each booked for three people - Double plus single plus sofa

If you can find a better deal (Beckton?) and one that does family rooms then we can shift - my rooms can be cancelled.

But give the Custom House Hotel a ring - they might be able to sort you out.

I'm trying to find cheaper options, and a hotel that has family rooms so that the Bazfish hoard can stay in the same hotel as us.


I'll update when I find something.

Funny you should say that .... :)

If I ever finish work tonight, I'll be seeing about getting some rooms in the London City Airport Travelodge.

I'll have about 30 hotel rooms booked soon across three different continents! :D

If there's a bridge I'd guess you could walk across it.

With reference to "your lot", does that mean that I don't have to include you and Chris in the numbers when I run around Excel at 7am trying to find wristbands for the UKCM?

that 'other lot' you might think i was referring to, i dont have much at all to do with these days.....you guys are far nicer and more chilled out!
