AUTOGRAPHS:
There will be a charge for each actor's autograph. This will generally be between £10 - £25 per signature depending on which guest.
(Please note: These prices are only approximate and are subject to change.)

PHOTOGRAPHING THE GUESTS/USE OF VIDEO CAMERAS:
We recognise that getting a photo with a guest can be important. Therefore, when you meet the guest to obtain your autograph,
there is usually no further charge for taking a photo with them. However, as the day progresses, it does sometimes become necessary to stop photos
in order that the guests can get through and meet more people, otherwise there would be fans that would go home not having met them at all.
Please also bear in mind that whilst guests are often willing to pose for photos with fans, there may be many reasons why they decline.
If this happens please do respect their wishes.

VIRTUAL QUEUING:
To help cut down the amount of time you have to spend standing in a queue we have introduced a virtual queuing system.
When you join the end of a guest's queue you will be handed a ticket with a number on it. Once you have your ticket you will
then be free to wander around the event or join other queues. Ticket numbers will then be announced (in batches of around 50)
once the previous group of people have their autographs, and you can then join the much smaller queue of fans who hold those numbers.
We do advise that you try to get there early if there is a guest you are particularly keen to meet.
