Just as the final question session came to an end, the song to \u2018SOS\u2019 by ABBA began to play and four figures dressed as their respective band members, paraded down the centre aisle to the stage where Amanda was sitting. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Those who were dressed up as the band were none other than <a title=\"Click to visit and follow Jenn Scheffler on Twitter!\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JennScheffler\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jenn Scheffler<\/a>, Rebecca Ford, <a title=\"Click to visit and follow Tracy North on Twitter!\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TracyNorth57\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tracy North<\/a> and <a title=\"Click to visit and follow Liesl Bland on Twitter!\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/liesl_99801\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Liesl Bland<\/a> . Many of the fans sang along, and Amanda Tapping herself even began to dance on stage with the ABBA-impersonators. It was a lot of fun to watch and sing a long too, and definitely ended the final question session on a high note.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7908\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7908\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a title=\"AT6 Ripples Abba Tribute Band members - Image courtesy GABIT Events\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gabitevents.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-7908\" title=\"AT6 Ripples Abba Tribute Band members - Image courtesy GABIT Events\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_18-AT6-Ripples-Abba-Tribute-Band-members-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events.jpg\" alt=\"AT6 Ripples Abba Tribute Band members - Image courtesy GABIT Events\" width=\"640\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_18-AT6-Ripples-Abba-Tribute-Band-members-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_18-AT6-Ripples-Abba-Tribute-Band-members-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-256x136.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_18-AT6-Ripples-Abba-Tribute-Band-members-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-320x170.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_18-AT6-Ripples-Abba-Tribute-Band-members-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-400x212.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7908\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image courtesy GABIT Events<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cvChjHcABPA?&amp;autoplay=1&amp;rel=0\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7882\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7882\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a title=\"AT6 Ripples - Fans gather and sing in the lobby - Image courtesy GABIT Events\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gabitevents.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7882\" title=\"AT6 Ripples - Fans gather and sing in the lobby - Image courtesy GABIT Events\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_10-AT6-Ripples-Fans-gather-and-sing-in-the-lobby-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-400x268.jpg\" alt=\"AT6 Ripples - Fans gather and sing in the lobby - Image courtesy GABIT Events\" width=\"400\" height=\"268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_10-AT6-Ripples-Fans-gather-and-sing-in-the-lobby-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-400x268.jpg 400w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_10-AT6-Ripples-Fans-gather-and-sing-in-the-lobby-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-256x172.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_10-AT6-Ripples-Fans-gather-and-sing-in-the-lobby-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events-320x215.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.org\/cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/05_10-AT6-Ripples-Fans-gather-and-sing-in-the-lobby-Image-courtesy-GABIT-Events.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7882\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image courtesy GABIT Events<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Attendees were given a final break time to prepare for the Closing Ceremony of the sixth <a title=\"Click to visit and follow Amanda Tapping on Twitter!\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AmandaTapping\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amanda Tapping<\/a> convention by <a title=\"Click to visit and learn more about GABIT Events at their official web site!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gabitevents.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GABIT Events<\/a>.
