Christopher Eccleston Wonderful Success, Gill Anderson Fail

On Wednesday, I went to the Donmar Warehouse in London to meet Christopher Eccleston. He usually goes to the theatre about 1 hour before the performance starts through the front door. I got there at around 18:00 and some people were already waiting there for him. We waited outside and nearly gave up at 18:50. Then I saw that Chris is inside the building, signing for the only person that was waiting inside. I rushed to him, gave him a little gifts from the Czech Republic and asked him for an autograph. He signed a Doctor Who photo for me and my girlfriend, thanked us and said that he needs to go. The other people outside didn't notice him until it was too late.

I was so nervous and I didn't want to keep him so I didn't ask for a photo. We went again on Saturday, between the afternoon and evening performance. It was raining so nobody was waiting there. We were waiting inside when we saw him coming in with a coffee at around 18:40, only in his shirt and partially wet from the rain. He winked at us and I rushed to him, telling him that we would love to have a photo with him. He said no problem and took the pictures with us.

I never even saw Gillian Anderson enter or leave. But I am still extremely happy to have met Christopher!!

Glad you got to meet Chris, he sounds lovely. :mrgreen: I should've asked him for an autograph years ago but I didn't collect then. I'm sorry that you didn't get to meet Gillian, though (to be honest I'm beginning to doubt I'll get my request for her back now. Never mind.)

I hope you both had a good time in London. {thumb2}

cheers,
sf.
