Writer and Paul McGillion fan Laura McConnell reviews the history of the successful SCB campaign, saying in part:
Letters, faxes, emails, and phone calls went out to the powers that be in the Stargate universe. Rallies were held, bagpipes were played, and Scottish dancers were seen at sci-fi gatherings the world over. The website savecarsonbecket.com was launched, and members began flocking to it like moths to a flame. Soon, Paul posted a video response to all this hoopla on GateWorld, and the rest, as they say, is history.
We thank Laura for her acknowledgement and invite all our visitors to read her entire article and to comment as well!
Joe Mallozzi has published Paul’s answers to the questions submitted to his blog by fans. It’s a lovely long Q&A! Visit Joe’s blog to read…
Joe Mallozzi is taking questions for a Q&A with Paul McGillion. From Joe’s Blog:
Just spoke to actor Paul McGillion who called to let me know that there’s an opening in his busy schedule and, why yes, he’d love to do a fan Q&A with us. So to all you Beckett boosters and Scot supporters out there, start posting. I’ll be gathering questions for Paul until Friday night – afterwhich it’ll be too late and you’ll only have yourselves to blame. Tsk, tsk.
So go and post a question or two as a comment to Joe’s blog, and Paul might just answer it!
Today Joe Mallozzi wrote on his blog that he has completed the first SGA movie script. He listed the characters that appear, and Beckett is among them:
Yes, all of the regulars and semi-regulars you’ve grown to know and love are in play – Sheppard, McKay, Teyla, Ronon, Woolsey, Keller, Zelenka, Lorne, Beckett, Chuck, Banks, and Todd – in addition to a couple of surprise guest stars.
Let’s hope Beckett has a substantial and fun role to play in the movie.
