SW Chronicles Collection

SW Chronicles Collection Since 1996, I've been collecting Star Wars signatures in my Star Wars Chronicles book.

It's been an amazing journey meeting so many cast & crew members along the way,& now I’d love to share my collection with fans from a galaxy far, far away!

🎬✨ BEHIND THE SCENES AT BBC ANTIQUES ROADSHOW ✨🎬

Today I had the pleasure of attending the BBC Antiques Roadshow at the historic grounds of Dartington Hall in Devon.

I brought along my signed Jedi poster, a couple of signed books, and some crew memorabilia, hoping to share a few special pieces.

After arriving just before 9am and ma7king it through security, there was a bit of a wait while I met the organisers and tried to figure out exactly where I needed to be.

After three attempts, I was thankfully guided by a lovely BBC employee to presenter Mark Hill, who immediately took a keen interest in the signed poster.

Then came the unexpected part… nearly 3 hours waiting in the green room while the BBC legal team reviewed whether the poster could be filmed due to possible copyright considerations.

The good news? 😀

Clearance was finally given and the poster was filmed!

Sadly, there wasn’t much interest in the signed books, but overall it was a fantastic day, a great experience, and exciting to be part of the filming process.

Now it’s fingers crossed that the footage makes it to air 🤞🏻📺

MANDALORIAN & GROGU – Film Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just got back from watching Mandalorian & Grogu and really enjoyed it!

Some moments in the film gave me strong The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi vibes, which was a great touch for long-time fans.

Loved the city parts of the film, reminded me of Bladerunner, nice little nod to the dropshot in Aliens aswell.

I also loved the new music throughout the film, and overall I thought it was a solid addition to the Mandalorian universe.

Enjoyed it for what it is and would definitely recommend watching it on the big screen

Big thanks to Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni & the cast and crew who made this an enjoyable watch defo going again

GERRY GAVIGAN - 2nd Unit A.D
Met Gerry Gavigan – 2nd Unit Assistant Director, and what an absolute pleasure it was.

It’s always special meeting someone who worked on Star Wars, but even more incredible when they helped bring the magic of A New Hope to life 50 years ago.

Gerry was a genuinely lovely chap, softly spoken with a warm Scottish accent and a strong handshake, and full of fascinating behind‑the‑scenes stories.

He worked on the iconic Tunisia scenes from A New Hope the very landscapes that introduced us to Luke Skywalker’s world.

Was great to add his autograph to my 30 year old book project with over 475 autographs

Shaken Not Stirred - Amberley Museum
Very early start and a long drive to Amberley Museum yesterday but the sunshine made it an absolutely perfect day out.

I finally got to attend my first Bond Convention and meet some amazing behind the camera guests who’ve worked not only on 007, but on Hollywood classics like Star Wars and Indiana Jones.

Exploring the chalk mines and museum grounds was incredible, especially knowing they were filming locations for Roger Moore’s final Bond film A View to a Kill

And the Aston Martins on display… those engines sounded unreal and the petrol fumes from some of the classic cars brought back some good memories

Such a fantastic day and great to meet so many like‑minded fans.

Highly recommend visiting the Amberley Museum a great day out and the staff where welcoming and helpful.

Shaken Not Stirred - Amberley Museum
Last year I stepped into the world of Doctor Who event to meet Lesie Schofield, and this weekend I’m levelling up with a trip to the Shaken Not Stirred James Bond themed event held at the Amberley Museum that was used as a filming location for the View to a Kill James Bond movie.

I’ll be meeting crew members who helped bring James Bond and Star Wars to life — absolute behind the scenes icons of cinema.

Can’t wait to travel somewhere new and soak up the atmosphere. Updates coming soon.

Anyone else planning on attending? would be good to meet up with some like minded people at the event.

ROSS BEADMAN – JEDI YOUNGLING
It was fantastic to finally meet Ross Beadman at the Star Wars Fan Fun Day!

I’ve wanted to meet him in person for several years, but our paths never seemed to align… until Bank Holiday Monday! 🙌

I was able to add his autograph to my Star Wars Prequels Chronicles book, signed on the very page he appears on, which made it even more special. 📖✍️

Always great meeting actors who were part of the Prequel Trilogy and hearing their stories from a galaxy far, far away!

And was great chatting with Ross about his time on Star Wars Episode III

Always on the look out for prequel signers so if you know any cast or crew PLMK as I would love to meet them 👍🏻
