Scroll to bottom Creator Topic October 18, 2017 at 2:51 am #223049 Ben SaundersParticipant There’s a listing on Amazon for a copy of Last Human by Doug Naylor signed by Rob Grant. Now, either they’ve got it mixed up with Backwards, they’ve got Rob mixed up with Doug, or there genuinely is a copy of Last Human signed by Rob Grant up for sale on Amazon. I want it to be the last one. I want someone to have approached Rob with Last Human, perhaps not even aware he didn’t write it, and Rob looking at it for a second and thinking “yeah alright”.

(a friend gave me a real-life reproduction of that framed photo last Christmas) October 18, 2017 at 10:57 am #223057 Seb PatrickKeymaster Dammit Ben, I had the image prepped before I even opened the thread. October 18, 2017 at 12:03 pm #223059 Kris ‘Drivaaar’ CarterParticipant Hah. Perfect. Image provided by the seller… October 18, 2017 at 12:04 pm #223060 Kris ‘Drivaaar’ CarterParticipant Let’s try that again. October 18, 2017 at 12:06 pm #223061 Kris ‘Drivaaar’ CarterParticipant Motherfu…. RIGHT. Fine. Paste this into a browser or something.

I used to be able to use HTML… October 18, 2017 at 12:59 pm #223064 Pete Part ThreeParticipant Amazing. October 18, 2017 at 2:41 pm #223065 clemParticipant That is brilliant. Now I want a copy of Random Abstract Memory signed by Norm. October 18, 2017 at 3:25 pm #223067 pfmParticipant Mwahahaha :p October 18, 2017 at 5:28 pm #223068 Ben SaundersParticipant Yes it real! Hahahahaha brilliant. October 18, 2017 at 5:35 pm #223069 Ben SaundersParticipant I just bought it in case anyone was wondering. I was going to buy Last Human anyway, and I can’t pass up owning this. Maybe I’ll get my copy of Last Human by Doug Naylor signed by Rob Grant signed by Doug Naylor. October 18, 2017 at 6:45 pm #223070 International DebrisParticipant I hope he was laughing as he signed it. October 18, 2017 at 8:01 pm #223071 Ian SymesKeymaster You’ll have to change your name to Daniel though, Ben. October 18, 2017 at 8:08 pm #223072 cwickhamParticipant At the weekend I found a signed copy of Shappi Khorsandi’s novel in a charity shop that was dedicated ‘to Amanda’, so I’ve got an even bigger problem facing me. October 18, 2017 at 8:09 pm #223073 DaveParticipant I think that the book’s owner no longer being someone called Daniel only adds another layer to the joke. October 18, 2017 at 9:00 pm #223074 JawscvmcdiaParticipant What if Rob Grant had not continued to sign the book after Last Human? October 18, 2017 at 9:11 pm #223075 Pete Part ThreeParticipant I like to think this book will be one of the few remaining artifacts of human civilization in three million years time. The future inhabitants will ponder “Who was Daniel?” “Who was Rob Grant and why has he signed a book written by someone else?” and “What is a book. anyway?” October 18, 2017 at 11:16 pm #223081 alexcollierParticipant Hello. Lurker here. This has reminded me of this poster curio I’ve had stashed away for the Last Human, by Grant Naylor: https://imgur.com/a/raGcB October 19, 2017 at 1:09 am #223083 pfmParticipant Gotta love the art on that. :) October 19, 2017 at 1:14 am #223084 pfmParticipant Seriously though……the actual heck with the book?? Maybe various things were being signed and Rob goes ‘fuck it, I’ll sign that for you as well’? Doug needs to see this cause it’s bloody hilarious. :D also it should be owned by someone called Daniel, or Danny or of that ilk I mean for fuck’s sake. October 19, 2017 at 7:03 am #223089 DaveParticipant also it should be owned by someone called Daniel, or Danny or of that ilk I mean for fuck’s sake No no, a book that’s written by Doug but signed by Rob should definitely be dedicated to a Daniel but owned by a Ben. October 19, 2017 at 10:20 am #223091 Taiwan TonyParticipant Are you really Alex Collier? If so, hello. I enjoy your work. October 19, 2017 at 10:33 am #223092 International DebrisParticipant Discussion point: why is the book with four main human characters the one called Last Human? October 19, 2017 at 10:42 am #223094 Pete Part ThreeParticipant Would dearly love to read the original draft/treatment/idea of The Last Human. The art Alex posted was in the Smegazine, alongside an interview with Rob and Doug where they confidently said “it takes place the day after” or something. Should have been called “Only Human”, mind. October 19, 2017 at 12:14 pm #223097 Ben SaundersParticipant Just read one chapter of Backwards then the second chapter of Last Human etc to get an idea. (Can you believe they ever thought that would work?) October 19, 2017 at 12:35 pm #223099 alexcollierParticipant I *think* it was mentioned on the series 7 doc that R&D did attempt to work together on the Last Human, writing alternate chapters? Though I may well have remembered that completely wrongly, or just made it up by mistake. Always thought there must have been some progress made for a publisher to knock out posters, anyway. Also, ta Taiwan Tony. Deeply flattered that you think anyone would pretend to be me. October 19, 2017 at 1:17 pm #223100 Taiwan TonyParticipant What? You’re like a comedy/art hero of mine! When I lived in London I did a few open spots (at the Bedford) with Simon on the same bill and I never bumped up the courage to talk to him. But you both were hugely important to me. It’s a proper thrill to see you here. I’d suggest you might want to appear on a Series XII DwarfCast with Ian if it wouldn’t make me jealous as fuck. Anyway. This is all getting a bit BDTS/Step Into My Office. October 19, 2017 at 2:57 pm #223104 flanl3Participant > Discussion point: why is the book with four main human characters the one called Last Human? Why did they combine four human characters into one Last Human though? October 19, 2017 at 6:25 pm #223140 JonsmadParticipant Ben you need Backwards signed by Doug Naylor for the set. October 19, 2017 at 6:38 pm #223142 JonsmadParticipant Ah, THE Alex Collier. Nice one. Hello Will you sign my back issue of Zit? October 19, 2017 at 7:14 pm #223147 Ben SaundersParticipant Does Doug do signings? He appears at publicity events and I guess Dimension Jump but I don’t think I can afford DJ October 19, 2017 at 7:23 pm #223148 JonsmadParticipant Not sure got my doug signature 3 DJs ago and, The next DJ is amazingly sold out already in just four days. Because Craig has agreed to sign Brittas Empire DVDs October 19, 2017 at 7:32 pm #223149 Ben SaundersParticipant Took me a whole 20 seconds of considering a reply before I realised the joke, there. I was going to ask, does Chris not usually sign Brittas DVDs? Why not? October 19, 2017 at 7:32 pm #223150 cwickhamParticipant Doug was signing at DJ 2015, but he wasn’t part of the official signing session and you had to accost him in the corridor if you happened to see him. October 21, 2017 at 3:07 am #223184 JoParticipant Doug just attended Stoke-Con-Trent, so might well do other appearances. No idea if he has any confirmed though. …you had to accost him in the corridor if you happened to see him. This is not true. October 21, 2017 at 3:51 am #223185 Ben SaundersParticipant There’s a sitcom where one of the jokes is how difficult it it to say somebody’s name because their first name ends with a K, and their second name also begins with a K. “Stoke-Con-Trent” reminds me of that. October 21, 2017 at 10:04 am #223189 cwickhamParticipant This is not true. To be fair I didn’t actually get anything signed by Doug because I thought he was part of the main signing session and he’d left by the time I was out of that, so it’s possible I’ve got this wrong (should have clarified that originally. Sorry about that). But he was definitely signing programmes somewhere at some point in the day. October 21, 2017 at 3:19 pm #223207 JoParticipant Yeah, we had to set up a separate session with him as the autographs were a last minute decision, we did try to let everyone know! October 21, 2017 at 4:05 pm #223212 cwickhamParticipant Ah, I clearly didn’t hear and then got the wrong end of the stick. Apologies! October 21, 2017 at 5:28 pm #223214 JoParticipant No worries! :) October 21, 2017 at 5:39 pm #223215 (deleted)Participant I think a mod needs to step in here, it’s getting a bit aggressive. October 21, 2017 at 5:45 pm #223217 JoParticipant Do you need a hug Darrell? October 21, 2017 at 6:01 pm #223220 (deleted)Participant I blame the storm. It’s broken me. October 21, 2017 at 7:47 pm #223221 Ben SaundersParticipant I’ll break you, you cunt October 21, 2017 at 8:38 pm #223223 Pete Part ThreeParticipant Well, that escalated quickly. October 22, 2017 at 11:20 am #223241 International DebrisParticipant I just came off a three hour phone conversation with cwickham and they’re leaving the board. October 22, 2017 at 5:57 pm #223248 applemaskParticipant YOU ARE ALL VIABLE TARGETS October 22, 2017 at 7:51 pm #223251 Seb PatrickKeymaster >I just came off a three hour phone conversation with cwickham and they’re leaving the board. I hope you found their modelling portfolio first. October 23, 2017 at 2:28 pm #223281 Ben SaundersParticipant It’s here.
