At the entrance to the school

Get your tickets here

First room

Entering the big room, Perry's the first I saw

Overview of the big room

Perry's to Classic Home Cinema view

Still in the big room

CHC ... Too bad I don't have enough money, The Mummy was tempting, but at GBP 300, it was sadly out of my range this time

More to follow, if it's not too annoying

Please continue!

(It may be as close as I'll ever get!)

Okay ... Fourteen more pictures (8 at a time)

Buckingham being browsed by my friend

First little batch of what I bought

Here we go into the viewing room, I must say I like my T-shirt too (even if my body makes it look out of shape [Roll Eyes]

)

The projectors being checked, here we go in a minute

Screen in non-scope setup

Introducing the show

Got to see cartoons, trailers and a digest

I said 8, but can only post 7? Or am I miscounting?

Good show. It's surprising that you had time to browse and buy!

Posted by Vidar Olavesen (Member # 3354) on October 28, 2013, 07:10 AM:

Yes, it was too hectic. Wish I'd gotten to talk to a lot of the people.

This was a nice digest with super colors

So went back outside after the Super 8 show, which was very good apart from the speaker problem

Getting some films from Rake ... Great guys

And some from Buckingham

Was some fine stuff everywhere really ... Got a Peter Pan I didn't have from here

Loads of nice posters hanging around

35mm show getting ready

That's it for now

Top job Vidar and nice to see young Keith lacing up the 35 machine. [Cool]

Posted by Vidar Olavesen (Member # 3354) on October 28, 2013, 09:04 AM:

Probably should know, but who are the two guys in the Introducing the show picture?

Keith is one of the BFCC guys, right? Wilton?

The actor Brian Murphy, from among others, George and Mildred the TV show from the 1970's

Vidar.
The man is legend and also known as Keith Wilton holding the mike along with Mr Murphy star of ‘On your way Riley’ 1985 amongst many other excellent performances and a fine British actor.

there seemed plenty of empty tables did some dealers not turn how many dealers tables were there ,pictures were very good thanks for posting glad everyone enjoyed it

Vidar,

Thanks for the pictures.

The emoticon is counted as 1 pic, that is why you got 7 pics only because you use 1 emoticon (greemlins).

You got 3 x 400' Westworld for GBP 15?! that is a steal price. How is the color, good or faded?

What is the title of digest with gorgeous color?

thanks

Hi Winbert, The screen shot of the digest looks like a part of Jason and the Argonauts, when they fighting the scorpion on the beach, or when they first spot the giant bronze statue that's springs to life.

David, I think Vidar's pictures must have been taken very early in the day, because the dealer room was pretty much stuffed with traders and buyers all day. No empty tables, I booked late and had to be squeezed in in the entrance between the ticket fellas and the Bring and Buy. It proved to be a very good spot!

Great pictures Vidar, sorry we didn't get to say hello on the day.

Mike [Cool]

David, there was only one empty table (it was boked because there was the name of the dealer on it, but there was nobody there) but all the others were assigned to dealers and were full of things.

Posted by Mal Brake (Member # 14) on October 28, 2013, 11:10 AM:

Yes it was 'Jason and the Argonauts'. Not a digest as such, but an extract from the full feature released by Derann some years ago.

Vidar, I saw you at various times during the day but didn't realize who you were otherwise I would have spoken to you. Ah well there is always next year (hopefully)

Posted by Vidar Olavesen (Member # 3354) on October 28, 2013, 11:38 AM:

I really hope there will be more. It was great fun. Yes, 15 is a decent price for Westworld and I will check it out today, Winbert. Might post some pictures of this later. The Jason and the Argonauts was part of the Super 8 show and it's sadly not mine :-/

It would be nice to meet you guys, but it was quite hectic and I am a bit shy with loads of people. And most of these pictures were from between 10 and 1 I believe.

I wrote and told BFCC how much I loved this and hopefully they get enough positive feedback to try again.

I stop using Gremlins then :-) Thanks, Winbert, now I at least know why. And 15 for Westworld, as I said, was fine, but when going to the club meetings in Norway, sometimes I get fine full feature prints for around 12-20 (I paid about that for Airplane, Grease, The Godfather, Escape From Alcatrazz) My cheapest feature yet is a GBP 1 Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill 16mm feature To Find a Friend, is to Find a Trease I believe it was called.

Fingers crossed for next year

It looks like a great venue: loads of room and a real auditorium as well.

Looks like Heaven! Thanks Vidar for posting. Maybe one I can make it.
