I totally agree with what No1 Grapher has said, IP and TTM are totslly different.

Ive met him a few times and met mymymy

And someone says "Some of us will never be able to get his autograph"

This all comes down to jelousy of mymymy

If you lived in london and one of your favourite stars was in town you would go down and meet him as many times as you desire as he is one of your fave stars.

mymymy is decent to post his in person successes and if all he gets is jelousy and negative comments he shouldnt bother posting.

Posting in person successes is great to compare ttm autographs with ip to confirm authenticty etc.

Ive got about 5 autographs from Mr Attkinson and to be honest if he didnt want mymymy to have any more autographs he could simply say "No." And im sure mymymy would accept this and wouldnt mind at all.

So lets start congratulating him and not showing jelousy and get on with the hobby which we are all members of this forum for.

James :D

[quote="James"]This is the difference to TTM as they will probably not remember Shaun's name after a week or so, where as Tennant will remember me after just 10 seconds so it is up to him whether he does them.[/quote]

I think this is the main point, TTM is anonymous (especially when Shaun writes letters under different names, so comparing mymymy to Shaun is completely unfair), whereas IP they almost certainly WILL recognise you, so can easily say no.

On the most I agree, but if it someone I like, and I have more than 3 or 4 things for them, I will bring them and see if they sign.

David Tennant is one example, I'm a big Dr Who fan, and I wasnt going to let David slip away, and he kindly signed 10 photos for me, including one of me and him taken that day. If he didn't want to sign them all he could say he didn't want to which would be fine. This is the difference to TTM as they will probably not remember Shaun's name after a week or so, where as Tennant will remember me after just 10 seconds so it is up to him whether he does them.

[quote="mymymy"]I have been a few times but

1. I do not sell mine
2. I treat the celbs with respect, I would back off if they told me to
3. It doesnt make me bad doing this, if you were this close to him im sure you would be getting him alot
4. I wouldnt have to jusify myself, I am a good person. I think its great what Shaun does, he writes to people more than once because he is obviosly a fan[/quote]


I certainley do concur with most of the above, as i strongly believe, that MYMYMY is a Top man, however saying that, some things need, to be thought about:

1) however respectful one is, Rowan will lose it one day, as he is a MOST private man.
2) Getting Upteen autographs of the same person, can come across, as a little self-serving, if I ever get 3 or more then, I will give the rest away, to others on this site, please remember that some will never get his autograph.
3) He now remembers you, and may not be so friendly next time.
4) I think the best rule of thumb is, if you set out to see a celeb, take a max, of 3 things for he/she to autograph, see them that once, and keep them sweet, for everyone else.

Hopefully, all except Rowan, he is sending the usual PP VV

I live in the states if i send a sase with irc would the cast sign a programme like they do in the states?

Hey, Glad to help

It is actually best to get him after shows becasue he is in a bit more of a rush before and the time he arrives varies.

He has arrived between 12 and 1 for a 2.30 matinee but for evening shows he has gone in really early, like 3pm for rehearsals although I think this might die down after press night (tommorow). He does not come out after matinees.

So the best time to get to the stage door is 10pm to get a clear spot behind the barriers, it is a bit of a wait becasue 10 is when the play ends. he is the last to come out at around 10.40-11pm

goo luck

Hi mymymy,

I was thinking about going up to London myself on Thursday to get Rowan to sign for me, do you know if he signs before going in the stage door, or is it only after he comes out? If he does sign before going in, do you know roughly what time he arrives?

Thanks,
