 hello that's it that's the intro we just got home from comic con it was a blast i'm never doing three full days again two days is plenty we thought we'd make a video going through how it went with the panel on my end and you meeting some very cool celebs on your end sort of goes through some stuff we got which is just out of frame for you isn't that fun where do we start oh i don't even know your panel let's do friday well i met up with philip hawkins sort of half an hour before the before we went in at starbucks and we were waiting for dom and rory to come along then we all went to get the speaker badge so that's when the trouble started it was a bit of a rigmarole a bit of a run around so we got to the west entrance which if you've been to the comic con before you'll know is the one with the stairs we asked a few security guards and we kept just sort of being bounced around like pinball and then none of them knew where to get the badge so i had to get out my phone with the comic on app and say look that's my name here's my id proof that i'm here can i go in and he said yes but don't get me in trouble so he gave me one of the bands which i believe is this blue one for this for the friday and i went in with the other three who did the same thing they showed their id proved it was them i got our bags checked we asked the bag people and they said go to s9 uh which is all the way down the other end so we did that it was shut the shut up was down so then we went back to the information desk who then told us what we had to do was go through s7 and then to s9 so we had to do that instead of just forward uh so we did that i went to the wrong booth that yeah and then finally i got there didn't have the q car q qr code they knew that it was me and i finally got my speaker badge which is now my one of my most cherished items that i will never snap and i love it i buffed me i buffed me it it goes in a fire that would be saved there we go that's the tier list that's the tier yes uh after that i pretty much went straight to the creator stage which is where my panel was and i set up i got the chance to set up early there was a lovely man there who i did a mic test with and i looked insane because there were people just passing just passing by and i was just going testing ignore the man with the mic testing one two three i haven't got the footage i should get it in the next couple weeks i don't know when this comes out but pardon me they didn't have a tablecloth on the table yet so i put my community show thing down and then the second i finished the panel they brought out the professional black tablecloths because sawed us we're not good enough for tablecloths a comma card i don't want to say too much about the panel now because i want the video itself uh to show it off but i think it went really well you weren't there for it work wouldn't let you come it was sad but it was okay because it was you know he did really well i think well what i saw he did really well so that was good and it seemed to be a good turnout a lot of people yeah that that is what surprised me unfortunately i don't think you see it in the footage and i didn't take a picture of it because i'm sick but there was about 20 25 people in the audience and they were really engaged they were laughing i did a q and a at the end people putting their hand up had questions it was absolutely wonderful uh so thank you if you're one of the people that was there it was great fun um myself dom rory and philip were all so grateful that you turned out a big thank you to dom rory and philip for for being my guests you did a phenomenal job and i look forward to sharing uh what a phenomenal you know phenomenal job you did we're tired okay it's been three four days for me two four days for you well you pretty much went from work directly to there too so it's we we had a great time but we are tired yeah should we start going through some stuff and then stories will probably come to us yeah so we'll start with saturday what are we doing saturday job well for saturday well the only thing i can remember we specifically set out to do was watch the loki panel yes we did the auditorium was where the loki panel was happening um and we didn't know that but people would already been in there and queuing in there since nine o'clock in the morning and that panel was like a one half past of twelve oh half past twelve or half past one it was it was insane and the poor guy who was revving up the the crowd at the beginning he was like thank you for sitting with me for three hours and 45 minutes probably longer than you thought we'd have to so you know it was insane so we watched the live stream didn't we from we did we're just really good they knew damn well that it was going to be a big turnout so they opened the main stage as well to watch a live streamed version of it which is weird but that means we had the pleasure of that dj oh the loud music they gave you a headache yeah well i was really ill on the saturday evening it was sick beat it was good and then when it came on it was really good and everyone was participating and listening and watching it was just really nice to to see him talking about everything and all of them talking about you know loki that we've all obviously watched during lockdown everything and that was nice and then we obviously wandered around didn't we we did we had to meet up we did have the meet there was a doctor who cosplay meet up i met with george sheared for the first time we'd been uh de-eving a little bit beforehand but i remember he was at comic con so i sent him a message and uh he came on over he's very tall if you've if you've never met him before he's very tall i thought he was stood up a few steps because we met on the steps outside and i thought he was a few steps up but i looked down and we were on the same step so i felt very small i was very small but to be fair that's because a lot of people that came up to me were very small yes that's true that was wonderfully all i said i i need to get more people i know but that meetup was really good and like at the beginning it was very awkward because no one really knew where it was happening and you could see some people over there and some people over there and never was just kind of waiting for it to conjugate in the middle it came together and then no one knew what was going on a few pictures were taken so in in my one of my uh big big out moments i uh ran to the front of the group we got my phone out and said i don't like doing stuff like that but i was like you know what i've hosted a panel i have to be relatively outgoing now yeah everyone would say asi and that was really good but then me and george were just you could see george in the background george wasn't he wasn't cosplaying either so he just like was standing there and then went we should probably get out of this photo because we're not we're not even involved in this technically so we just like backed out as soon as i took that picture then everyone else like around started taking pictures as well so i was a trendset it was almost like oh my god i can't get the photo of all the nerds but the problem is when i jumped in to do the pictures as well i haven't seen any of those pictures i only have the ones of everyone else which are lovely pictures but i'd love to see one so if anyone has one please send it our way trust me my vein i would literally make a like a photo album of just yeah be repeating people and there were so many people who um stopped you as well there was so many people um we were handing out um we had little business cards which had jack's um like uh twitter handles stuff like that in there yeah yeah we still got a few still a few and we were giving them out so that people could actually send it to us like tag us in it because it was really sad i think the first time we went wasn't it that few people took pictures but you can't you don't see them because people post them on their own facebook or wherever and you just don't you don't see them so we thought if we gave them out people could actually send them to you or thank you or look up your your channel and stuff like that so you know it was it was quite nice to do that so if anyone has them please send them our way as we're recording this as said it is the Sunday evening so you know people are probably still heading home from the garden so hopefully we'll get some more my first merch story i want is to do with this oh okay this is one of the first things i bought this is a present for jemma it's an ace it's a little ace but i think i took a picture of a bunch of the things that because there was a bunch of woollen doctor who he goodies so i bought you that yes and so the day after when i joined that was on the friday so when you came to join me on the saturday we then went back and completed the set i had to get him oh it was just so cute together aren't they it's coming in hair i know it's coming in hair but they're just so sweet i know rory bought mccoy as well because he was dressed as mccoy on the friday they're happy family yeah there was only one doctor who's specific thing other than the community show of course uh which was the time meddler's store i've heard mixed things about time meddlers apparently they're not very reputable but i no one told me why so i bought stuff anyway the fourth doctor's painter lapel which is lovely look at that i've been looking for those abyssal ones for ages as well as one that's fallen out which is the sixth doctor's cat lapel so that's cool yeah that was cool and then we went back the next day and we got the suspenders the we did we got the purple coast oh hello so there i've got these now too i've never had these i've only ever had the red ones and we'd sometimes subtly leave um the business cards that's how that's how i remember george sheared was there because he found one of my ruddy calling cards i left at time meddlers i bet the people at time meddlers were like who is this guy that keeps suspiciously leaving these cards because they would always disappear so i don't know if people took them or if they were like get this but there was a few people who took pictures and sent them to his yeah there was an artist vicky i know you sent me one i wish i bumped into you because i know you bought one of these as well i don't know which one you bought i forget but you bought one of the woollen woollen boys oh no it was a dalek i do believe shall we talk about your celebrity meetings today oh yeah okay so today was a very i felt like all i was doing was waiting for the time because the the timings of my two photo ops were like very close together um and one of them um the charlie cox one that was my first one um dare he was my first one at half past 12 but the um it was he was running a little bit late so he was like 10 minutes maybe a bit less um late and i was like sitting there going oh i really hope we're not going to be too late because otherwise i can't be done and i thought oh no and i could always see people like queuing on the opposite side like just sitting down queuing i thought i wonder what that's for and then afterwards i realized it was the tom hiddleston photo op queue starting an hour early you know because obviously you've already paid for a 225 pound ticket and you're not gonna you're not gonna get uh oh it's so silly anyway i met charlie cox first and he was literally the sweetest human oh my god there was something about that um he was literally the sweetest human being i've ever met he was fist bumping everyone through the little perspect glass um and the guy in front of me was so awkward that she didn't realize he was doing it to like just be like hello she thought it was a he was trying to do a photo op pose and she was like oh no no no i want to do this and i thought oh my god oh charlie i was like she just he just wanted to say hello so when i went up he was doing it and i was like yeah i was like yeah he was like are you okay he was like what's your name i thought oh my god same my name jarl same my name um but he was so sweet and he was just lovely and i said that i want to do the bat's back but i didn't know whether i could lean on the perspect so i didn't know there's a mini awkward gap but that's okay but are you fixed in the next one i fixed it in the next one he was just so sweet and then he was like are you gonna come to the panel and i was like i didn't know there was a panel but we went but i'm coming yeah i'm coming and luckily we actually saw them in person not just a fucking live stream yeah so he was in person this time um which was really nice with his uh co-star i played caron yes she was they were both very nice turned out she plays dnd she does lots of dnd there you go and then when i came out of charlie's experience which was really it was really good the charlie experience the charlie experience that's what i'm calling it and i asked people if i could stay and wait for the some hiddleston one and they were like oh yeah you're a bit early but it's okay go and sit in that queue and i was like you're telling me i'm a bit early and this woman's been waiting there already for like 40 minutes i was like that's fine whatever i was just dottering around just off somewhere else i was just going off back and forth being stopped by uh people for pictures and stuff yeah and that was fun that was fun but um the tom hiddleston one was um there were so many people and we could tell who was the big one at the con like there wasn't a lot of guests but they had the main one yeah and charlie had at least like four to five four or two five queues waiting for him to go like waiting for his picture but tom had like 15 and we were all just standing there i was like i feel like i'm in the wrong queue or something and then then we went in and he wasn't he was later than charlie was and this woman who was um standing there doing like she was a crew or something yeah um she was like it's always this time this time of people that just go wow they think they think they could just come whenever they want and i was like oh that's like that's vicious i was like chomkin come whenever he likes okay he can turn up at like two and i'll still wait for him i don't care we were going in because there was more people i was luckily in the first queue um and i got him at his best he had music playing which i don't think i think yeah so he had music playing and the security guards were like yeah he likes to dance around sometimes so sometimes if you could really say that in the panel as well like he was blasting music on the slow key set yeah and apparently that's just his thing he loves to just like blast music out and he was just blasting music so when you walk in there it's just like well it wasn't like that but it was it was good it was good music he was on the other side of perspex glass and i was like oh um and he was just like so love he was just so sweet he was so tall and just so lovely that's the first thing you'd i was cut on the way uh to to meet you afterwards and all you messaged was he was so tall all the caps he was so tall and he was just so sweet and i loved him and he was just lovely as well and he was like what do you what do you pose do you want to do and i was like oh i want to do better to better please make it better please make it better but yeah so he was really lovely too and that was just really nice it was just a lovely opportunity and then obviously after that um was the dead little panel i don't care how early we got there i was waiting for my photo ops i was so uh how much how much was that talking about how much it was okay i already said my mom my mom bought it for me for my birthday shout out to you pam i didn't want to say the name shout out to you pam it was a lot of money it was a lot i was like debating whether or not i was gonna spend money that we're supposed to be saying for a house on that and it was very close to happening but then mommy said that she would buy for me mommy i want another pony but i paid for charlie cox because for some reason it was so much cheaper nearly a hundred and fifty pound cheaper only yes it was a hundred and fifty pound probably more cheaper to see charlie than was to see tom oh one of my favorite things so not only was i um on the on the app and on the website and on the tv screen uh outside the actual stage but wouldn't you know it i ended up in here i'm sure i'll take a closer picture but i am right is that the right page i'm right there one of the i was the first person on the creator stage and seeing the community show in there is inherently very funny to me because i know how unprofessional the show is but clearly they don't i'd love to do this again if i were to do this again i need to think of new guests because i don't want to keep bringing on the same ones because the community is huge i'd love to ask luke newman he's on the list uh typically mainly just to get as more dw2012 doctors under the live belt if you have any ideas of who i should bring on give me a shout or if you'd like to come on yeah josh car i'd love to get you on that's oh yeah george there were some great cosplayers though that um i forget his name but he dressed as a cyber man that poor man you were sweating weren't you mate i'll put a picture in your handle here but oh my god like we kept meeting him without the helmet and just the sweat dripping down even outside when it was cold yeah you were freezing because you forgot your card yeah it was in the suitcase he was just sweating and i thought oh my god but then you think you see all these people are dressed in massive cosplays and you just think how are you coping all day long and then on the flip side of it then you see like people dress like maybe they're shirtless or they're in just skin tight latex or whatever and you're just like you're outside and it's windy as shit how be i'm going as catwoman next year full of out on tumblr i saw a bloke and i didn't realize it was a bloke at first who had fake boobs but like but not like in a bra but like like like lifelike breasts and i was like and i only knew it was a bloke because he had a beard and i was like wow well there's that and then i told you about that woman who was also she had her her boobs her breasts out and she had like hearts over her nipples and i just thought maybe she's like covered them up but no they were just her nipples they were just out and i was like is that a laugh how cold are you like you must be freezing yeah i'm going as um uh naked man next next year 22 okay jack in the evening yeah there was a lot of anime that i don't know you're into anime than me yeah but even then there was like anime where i haven't even seen it but there's so many a lot of made that's not
