We
announced earlier this week that Warwick Davis and Tom Felton would be attending the Memorabilia fan convention at Birmingham this weekend. Warwick updated his
Twitter just now with a photo of the pair of them at the event, which can be seen
here:
If anyone attended Memorabilia and has photos and stories from meeting the two, please feel free to
send them in.
UPDATE: We have just received a report from Tina Davies, a fan who attended the convention, who has also promised to send photos she took from the day. Here's her story;
Quote:
I attended the Memorabilia at Birmingham to see Tom and Warwick. I was one of the first to see them. They are fantastic guys. While I was waiting Tom spotted me, smiled and acknowledged me as we met once before at the premiere of The Disappeared. Just shows what a lovely guy he is.
I met Warwick first. He is a real friendly guy and we spoke about Twitters and he told me that he usually tweets whilst waiting to film and has promised me a tweet, so fingers crossed.
Tom greeted me and we spoke like friends and he signed my own photo of myself and him at the premiere. Couldn't have any photos since my camera let me down but I did get a pic later at the photoshoot.
Later they took to the stage and it was an entertaining 45 minutes covering Harry Potter, of course, their interests, favourite films, Tom's music and up and coming projects, with Warwick leading the questions.
Warwick revealed he would like to be in Doctor Who and suggested he could play The Doctor halfway between regenerating if that goes wrong, and he revealed if he wasn't an actor he would be a graphic designer.
They were so much fun, both of them. Tom even stopped and spoke again to me. I was so lucky to have met two great guys in one day.
The Telegraph also has quotes from the event;
Quote:
Felton said: "We've just finished doing the most substantial bits of filming."
"I think we're revelling in the fact that this is it - the last one. I get quite emotional just thinking about it."
"I'm not looking forward to not being blonde anymore. I've forgotten what my real hair colour is."
UPDATE #2: Tina has sent in further info, including Tom talking about the epilogue for
Deathly Hallows, stating that he does not yet know if he will be needed for it;
Quote:
Tom was asked if he was to be used in the epilogue and as yet doesn't know, but he told us that a mould of his face and the others was made last year and he was asked to provide photos of his brothers and father and remarked he couldn't wait to see himself wrinkly.
Tom also referenced reading scripts for other projects and teased about a possible appearance in the next
James Bond film. He also spoke about his next film,
Between the Waves,
Quote:
I wanted to ask him to speak with a Welsh accent for his up and coming film Between the Waves but didn't get time and when I saw him after I said I was going to ask him - he thanked me for not doing it. I was curious because of my Welsh connections, but he said it was coming along and seemed embarrassed and I told him no worries, I wasnt that heartless.
UPDATE #3: Tina sent a few photos of Tom and Warwick from their panel talk, which can be seen
