... Biggs is back! ...

After a great time with fans and friends at Nashville ICCC (and even a super night at the Grand Old Opry), Garrick is off his horse and coming to the big CFCC at the Utilita Arena, Cardiff, on Saturday and Sunday, October 19th and 20th. Hope to see you there. See www.filmandcomicconcardiff.com for more information.

... Late Activities ...

While Biggs parked his X-Wing for the summer, Garrick has had a busy time directing audio. He was thrilled to work with director, author and adventurer, Werner Herzog, who was reading his exciting autobiography, 'Every Man for Himself and God Against All'. Then came the delightful Geri Halliwell of the 'Spice Girls' who has written and read the first of a series about a feisty student, 'Rosie Frost', who overcomes the first traumatic weeks at a new, high-achieving school on a distant island. A different challenge faced the detectives Comoran Strike and his assistant Robin Ellacott in Robert Galbraith's (J.K.Rowling's) new thriller 'The Running Grave' read by Robert Glenister. And just published is Thurston Moore's recording of his life and times as lead guitarist of 'Sonic Youth'. His many friends included the famous musicians who came to be known as the punk generation.

Garrick is now acting again, playing Gabe in director Ben Wheatley's new series for Channel 4 called 'Gen Z' starring Robert Lindsay, Sue Johnston, Anita Dobson and Paul Benthall.

He is keen to see his Star Wars mates and fans again as soon as he finishes the TV series in November. Biggs will be back!

... Past Events ...

Garrick apologizes that he can't be with the terrific 'Unleashed Events' Team in Leeds to meet new Star Wars fans and old friends next Sunday, October 15th as he is working in Wales on Ben Wheatley's exciting 'Gen Z' TV series, starring Robert Lindsay, Sue Johnston and Anita Dobson, to be released next year, full of mystery, action, anger and blood, plus lots of dark comedy.

Biggs was bopping (and signing) at the big CANTINA CONCERT EVENT along with famous stalwarts from EPISODE IV: A NEW HOPE -- Julian Glover, Ken Colley, Paul Blake and more! Held at The O2, Peninsula Square from 10:30 to 18:30 on April 9th, 2023.
