Unfortunately, Shane received the same shoddy treatment by the
organisers (who shall remain nameless) as Ed and Francis, and so was
also absent from the event.

I believe the promoters - a scale-model memorabilia company - were
first going to do a promotion based on models from the Anderson
series, with associated actors (Ed, Shane and Francis) 'fronting'
it. Very late in the day, they changed their minds, and went with a
promotion on 'Battlestar Galactica' models, to be fronted by two of
that series' actors. And so dropped the Anderson people.
What a shame only one of the 'Galactica' actors turned up - and he
seemed to be less than busy, sitting reading a book for most of the
time :^
Perhaps this will have taught the organisers their lesson - though
it seems unlikely the Anderson people, or anyone who has learnt of
their treatment, will want to deal with them ever again.
Grr.
