Stargazer - Generations II
6-8 April 1996
Royal Albert Hall, London

The second Stargazer Trek convention at the Royal Albert Hall, this time over three days (Easter weekend), and featuring not one but TWO captains!
This time there WERE signing sessions, although these were confused - attendees had to buy raffle tickets for each autograph they wanted, and if more were sold than were going to be signed (100 each), then 100 tickets were drawn out.  Of course, these were not checked that well at the signing rooms, and many more people queued on the off chance that they might get lucky (many were lucky!)
The only exception to this was William Shatner, who ran a Dutch Auction for his autograph, all proceeds going to charity.
Leonard Nimoy, who was originally on the guest list, and who appeared in the convention programme, had to cancel at very short notice.
However, a surprise, unbilled, guest was Jennifer Lien ('Kes' in Voyager)

Guest List: William Shatner, Avery Brooks, James Doohan, George Takei, Walter Koenig, Ethan Phillips, Robert Picardo, Wil Wheaton Larry & Janet Nemecek and Jennifer Lien
