Ray has always been one of my favourite actors, and I was stoked when I received these back from him.
Unfortunately, after comparing this in person autographs I have seen, I believe this to be a secretarial fake.
One of the fabulous Golden Girls. I would have loved to have autographs from Rue, Estelle and Bea. Thankyou for being a friend ladies.
The brilliant Daniel Craig
The amazing Ed Asner. He is always great with fans, and he wrote a couple of brilliant inscriptions, including telling me I was still on the naughty list on the Christmas card I sent him! He also added a photo himself because his English cat had torn part of the photo I sent! Great guy.
Not a success , but an autopen, but I thought I would include this
After seeing the amazing IMAX Hubble 3D at the Kennedy Space Center, I wanted to get a few autographs from the crew involved. I received these 3 photos from NASA after I contacted them, but have since been told NASA uses autopens for their autograph enquiries, so these are more of a failure than anything else. I have found different addresses to try and am trying again with a couple of the astronauts, so fingers crossed.
Another of my favourite actors...one day I shall finally get a personalised autograph from him!
After seeing the brilliantly gory and supremely sick (and he won't mind me saying that!) film A Day Of Violence, I contacted director Darren Ward to see if he could sign my blu ray cover, and get autos from a few of the actors in the film. He was gracious enough to sign my cover, as well as a couple of extra pics he threw in, and get two of the actors autos for me. Cheers mate!
After seeing the truly amazing Blue Man Group in Orlando, we went to the 'meet & greet' after the show, and I managed to get one of the Blue Men's autograph! Well, it's their own version of their autograph...for guys they pressed their thumb on the paper so you got a nice blue thumb autograph which they also sellotaped over. For the ladies, they kissed the paper so it had a bright blue kiss as the autograph! If you get the chance to see them...DO IT!
The lovely Katie McGrath who was deliciously evil in Merlin! I originally got an autograph back with a weird yellow mark on it, so I wrote to her again and asked
for another and she graciously obliged
for another and she graciously obliged
I got this from the brilliant Kevin Spacey while he was performing on stage in London.
Super nice guy Nick Cornwall, I am his first official fan! Don't let the hard guy exterior mislead you,
Nick really is one of the nicest celebs around
Nick really is one of the nicest celebs around
One of the World's top stuntmen and overall top guy Sam Hargrave and actress and fellow expert in stunts Monique Ganderton
The brilliant Chris Dane. Go watch Born of Hope!
After joining the Astroaddies group, I found new addresses for the Hubble space shuttle expeditions, and John is the first reply I have had. Definitely hand written rather than the standard NASA autopens.
Jeffrey DeMunn from The Walking Dead. I think this is the longest wait I have had so far...over a year if I remember rightly!
Another astronaut from the Hubble missions. I'm (very) slowly getting the set!
The brilliant Johnny Harris. Signed both pics and also sent me a card with a very cool thankyou note. Class guy
From the very funny Catastrophe. Have written to a few of it's stars so hopefully I will add some more.
From the very funny The Kennedys, and you must see him in Bad Education! Have written to the main cast so hopefully will get some more soon.
Julian Wadham from the brilliant movie Outpost
Richard Brake, from the superb movie Outpost. There is another photo of Richard in the Game of Thrones section
Daniel Janks from the brilliant latest movie in the Tremors series, Tremors 5...super nice guy.
The Quest for Sullivan's autograph did indeed become an actual quest! I had contacted his agent in Australia a couple of years before receiving this, with lengthy spells of not seeing him to pass on my letter to just missing him, as he is a very very busy guy. I was over the moon when I did actually get a reply, and he signed my photo I sent and included two extra ones himself with great inscriptions. What a guy!
Viewer discretion is advised with this !! The star of the brilliant Wolf Creek signed both photos I sent and one had that quite unique and fantastic inscription!
Wolf, from two brilliant independent films, The Rangers and Rise of the Fellowship
I was over the moon when this one dropped through my letterbox. Will is an extremely funny guy, and star of the superb show Last Man on Earth.
The very lovely star of the web series Ren (go watch it!), signed both pictures and wrote an extremely nice letter too.
OK...this one was a HUGE wow for me. As you would have seen at the start of this section, I am a big fan of Ray, and I sent him a couple more photos (yup I was being greedy!!) to sign as well as a home made Christmas Card I did for him. Earlier this year, a letter came back with just the card returned and no photos! Thought it a bit odd to say the least, so I wrote off to him again with the same photos and letter explaining about the card. Then about 6 weeks after I sent that, I got a letter back, with both photos I sent signed, as well as two extra 6x4s he included himself and also a very cool letter apologising for the previous mishap with the card and photos. Wow, just wow! Ray, you're an amazing actor and an amazing bloke.
Ivanno Jeremiah from the show Humans. Not personalised but he did send me a cool little thankyou note
Stuntman and actor extraordinaire, plus all round nice guy Patrick M Walsh
This was a disappointment. I received one of these pre-prints from his agent, which is basically just a print out copy of an autograph, so not even signed by hand. I include this here for the sole purpose of saying...don't give up if you get the odd failure. The successes you get make this all worthwhile, the special ones even more so.
From the very funny Is Harry On The Boat? and the gore fest that is Inbred!
The brilliant Vasquez from Aliens!
Joel Polis from The Thing amongst other things. Signed my two photos and included two others himself, great guy
Another really nice guy and great actor
Super nice guy, signed the photos I sent and included his own too.
Happy to get these...not signed personally but was a little surprised to get them knowing how much mail he must've got during his theatre run in London
The very funny Steve Pemberton from the League of Gentlemen and Inside No. 9
From Salem and The Walking Dead, signed my photos and wished me Happy Holidays on the back of the envelope! Class guy
