[QUOTE="Simply Sci-fi, post: 275786, member: 5480"] Hi all, I am putting the finishing touches to my book Star Wars: The U.K Story, which covers the years 1975 – 1983. I am a little short of fan’s memories though. I would greatly appreciate if people could write at least two paragraphs on one or more of the following subjects, including your age and where you were living in the U.K at the time. Either post your answers in this thread or send me a private message. Please note that I am not including any recollections from 1984 and beyond - I’ll be gathering those for the next book which covers 1984 – 1999. Please include your real name (if you want to reveal it). Any help would be greatly appreciated! Craig. When did you first learn about Star Wars? Do you remember any of the build up to the release of the Star Wars films such as radio or television adverts, TV and press reports etc? When and where did you first see each of the Star Wars films at the cinema and what did you think of them? (Please write two paragraphs on each). Do you have memories of any merchandise that you had in the 70s and 80s? Is there one particular item that you have fond memories of? Did you own any of the "cash in" Star Wars soundtrack albums? Star Wars was re-released at the cinema in 1979 and 1980. The Empire Strikes Back was re-released in 1981. Any memories? What was your experience of watching Star Wars on television for the first time? Did you attend the Star Wars cinema Double Bill when it showed around the U.K in 1982? What was your experience of watching the Star Wars cinema triple bill and when and where was your first one? Do you have any memories of the Star Wars spinoffs such as the novels, radio drama and weekly comic? Do you have memories of the Darth Vader or Boba Fett tour, or of any other Star Wars related events up until the end of 1983? Were you involved in or have any knowledge of Star Wars fan groups or fanzines before the end of 1983? How did you feel about the Star Wars saga at the close of 1983? Could you see it continuing or were you aware that George Lucas was taking a break from it all? [/QUOTE]
