OMG!!! I am so thrilled to have met the superb actress, MAGIE SMITH.

MAggie attended last nights press night for Michael Gambon's latest west end play

I was thrilled that Maggie signed my HOOK 10x8 already signed by Bob Hoskins (TTM), Dante Basco and Tinkerbell pupeteer and also posed for a photo with (although not looking directly at camera at the time, im soooooo happy with this)

MAggie did not sign on the way in but I was first to spot her and asked, she said she was running late so couldnt right now but promised she would on the way out. On the way out about 15 people went for her and she took a slight trip. She was taken backstage to meet Michael. On the way out from backstage I was the first to see her whilst most others had dispersed to get other guests, she clocked me and said "I'll sign now". Although not my fault, I then apologised for her slight fall, i said i was sorry but i wasnt involved to which she replied "I know you weren't dear" which I though was nice.

Re Maggies health, i have previously heard alot of rumours re her being gravely ill etc, i know she did have cancer but i believe she has now beaten this. She looked very well, walking unaided and thinking for herself, the photo doesnt do it justice, but she looked very well.

Thanks {up}

That is the signature of Mark Bryan Wilson, he is a puppeteer and prop constructor for many films including ghostbusters and Hook. In hook he did all the puppet manipulation of tinkerbell, basicly everything you see of tinkerbell apart from the closeups of Julia Roberts with a little help of some special effects

excellent i was looking for some pictures of Maggie Smith as Wendy in Hook but cant seem to find anything.
I did get my VHS Sleeve signed by Bob Hoskins a few years back when he was filming in Margate 'Last Orders'

Be good for you to get Robin to sign your 10x8 when he next visits.

its very simple; you just have to buy this special camera which enables stills to be taken, i know some people do it with an ordinary camera but it often produces a grainy, poor quality image. Google it.

The HOOK shot is not a huge poster but a 10x8 size glossy photograph from the poster found on the net;
