Swancon

Only on a couple of panels for this Swancon -

Sunday 2pm-4pm - Classic Doctor Who panel We'll be discussing Season 4, Hartnell Troughton stories.

Monday 2pm-3pm - Whose Line Is It Anyway I'm hosting! When I was originally asked to do it, I requested suggestions from the programmers of good people to be contestants, because my brain is gone. They've been naturally very busy and so I'll ask here for some suggestions, or volunteers. I'd like to be able to talk to and go through the kind of games the contestants can expect before the day so they have a better idea of what they're in for.


I may end up drafted to appear on/in more stuff. Happy to do a few more, just as happy to rest. Will probably spend less time wandering around during the day and more catching up in the evenings.

Richard Harland would be a good one. Don't know what folks have performing backgrounds that would be comfortable doing it.

That said, I wouldn't mind giving it a go :)

I think the Whose Line is an awesome idea, I've been playing with suggesting an SFnal one of those for Swancon for years now ("Hello and welcome to Whose Spaceship Is It Anyway, the gameshow where everything's made up and the points don't matter. That's right, the points are like a petition to save Firefly sent to Fox."). I wish I could be there to see it! Games like Questions Only on the Nostromo, or speaking only in SF movie titles... and a Battlestar Galactica Hoedown would be priceless. ;)

Yay! Can't wait to see you!!!

Whose line is it anyway suggestions--Gina and Sue are both very entertaining theatre sporty people. From memory I think Terry C is an entertaining theatre sportsman as well. Granty has a theatre background and is always entertaining :) Ben P has a theatre background, but not sure if this is performance as well as writing. I don't think Robin has a theatre sports background, but I could imagine he would be very good at an SF version -- heh, I'd pay to see that anyway :)

Erm, I didn't want to write peoples full real names on the internetz so feel free to email me if I am too cryptic you need surnames :)

I could probably be convinced myself if you are really stuck, but improvisation scares me deeply!
