MORE GUESTS CONFIRMED AT SEASON 2 DVD LAUNCH EVENT
Joining Gareth Thomas, Jan Chappell, Michael Keating, Jacqueline Pearce, David
Jackson, Peter Tuddenham and Brian Croucher are June Hudson (B7 Costume
Designer), Mat Irvine (B7 Effects Designer), Tony Radford (B7 Assistant Film
Editor) and Kevin Davies (Producer/Director of the B7 DVD Special Features).
Tony Radford, together with Film Editor Sheila S. Tomlinson, put together the
original B7 Blooper tape which we'll also be showing on the day, and we hope
he'll give us a commentary to go with it.
There are still tickets left for the event, at the Tricycle Theatre, 269 Kilburn
High Road, London NW6 on Sunday 16th January (not March, as the BBC's Cult TV
website have unhelpfully put!!). If you'd like to join us, do order your
ticket(s) as soon as possible. The £50 ticket is a great bargain - not only do
you get early entry and a DVD box set (RRP £49.99, or £37.99 from Horizon) but
also free cast signatures from all the main cast signing on the day (7 so far!),
a free prize draw to win Season 3 Box Sets, an exclusive screening of the short
comedy film 'Blake's Junction 7' and on-stage interviews with the B7 cast. A
£17.50 ticket if you don't want to buy a DVD still gets you everything except
the DVD, free cast signatures or early entry. Our guests will be at the event
until at least 4pm (Gareth will be there until 6pm) and you'll have the
opportunity to chat in a relaxed atmosphere once the signing is finished.
Entry to the event is by pre-booked ticket. There may be a few tickets
available on the day, but you MUST telephone Diane to check and reserve a place
beforehand. Her number is 020 8236 0810.
More info and booking instructions were sent out around Christmas via this email
bulletin service. If you didn't receive this, or the DVD ordering info, please
email Diane at horizonb7@... and she'll send you one individually.
The info is also archived on the yahoo groups site.
NEW PHOTO OFFER WITH DVD ORDER
If you've not ordered your Season 2 DVDs yet, I'm just letting you know of a
special photo offer in case you want to add this to your order... Many people
have been asking if there's a group photo available to buy of the big Cast
Reunion that was held in March for the launch of the Season 1 DVDs, so I've
decided to offer a 7x5" colour photo along with S2 DVD orders at just £2 (and no
extra postage - as it's a 7x5" I can slip inside the DVD box so it won't
crease). If you're coming to the signing event you'll be able to pick one up
there (if they're printed in time!)
This is a really nice group shot taken in the morning while Stephen Greif was
still there, so it's got 11 cast members (most people only managed to take a
group photo at the end of the Audience with B7 panel, when Stephen had already
left!) ! If you'd like a copy just say on the order form/info when you
write/email in and if it's a card payment I'll add it to the total, or you can
add an extra £2 to your cheque.
If you want the photo but not the DVDs, the cost will be £3.80 (including UK
postage), £4.00 (incl. Europe postage) or £4.50 (including Rest of World
postage).

DVD ORDERS
Anyone ordering the S2 DVD set before 12th January will be guaranteed at least 2
cast signatures on their box, along with 1 entry to a prize draw to win one of 5
Season 3 box sets. Hurry and order yours today - £37.99 (incl. UK postage),
