Whovians, fans of the sci-fi classic Doctor Who, are also well served with three former doctors - Christopher Eccleston, Paul McGann, and Colin Baker – in attendance.

In addition to the celebrities, visitors can browse trade stalls which will sell everything from original artwork, toys, and clothing to replica props and even more. 

Also, as is a comic-con tradition, guests are encouraged to dress up in ‘cosplay’ – costumes of their favourite characters – and take photos with the other guests decked out in fashion that celebrates their favourite franchises.
