Ttaskmaster Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 OK, for those that don't know, I'm a huge fan of the Alien movies, Aliens in particular. A bunch of mates and I get invited to go round conventions, collectors shows and the like, dressed up as the Aliens and Colonial Marines to entertain the public.... usually by scaring the shit out of them with the Alien guys!!! In return we get fed, accomodated and the shows donate money to our chosen charity, the NSPCC. We also get to hang out and get drunk with loads of famous people, like Sir Henry Cooper, Jake La Motta, Robert Vaughan, Joan Collins, Ernest Borgnine, Craig Charles and Robert Llewellyn, to name but a few. Before anyone asks, we're not like Trekkies - We do this for a laugh, as an excuse to get together and go drinking and to raise a lot of money for charity. Over the weekend, we got to do some film work with a personal hero of ours - Trevor Steedman, who plays Private Wierzbowski in Aliens. You might also recognise him as Bomber Harris, the boxer who nuts Brad Pitt in the film Snatch. Here's a couple of pics with us; Trevor Cast Shot The Massive Trevor Steedman (Steve on the left is standing on a box!!) That's me standing behind the Aliens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, Lee Majors? Haven't run into him yet, but I wouldn't rule it out - It's a little unlikely as big American don't often come to the UK.
