MARK GATISS UNABLE TO APPEAR
Wessex Press regrets to announce that, with the recent addition of the BBC SHERLOCK Christmas Special to his busy schedule, Mark Gatiss will be unable to appear at FROM GILLETTE TO BRETT IV. Celebrity guest appearances are always in danger of last-minute cancellation due to work commitments such as this. It is unfortunately a risk when booking guests who are entertainment industry professionals. We are, however, working to secure the appearance of additional Special Guests, and will be making announcements about a revised list of scheduled guests soon. WATCH THIS SPACE!
