Popcorn! a brand new TV & film convention from the team behind HorrorConUK will be bringing much-loved stars to Magna in Rotherham this weekend.
Popcorn is a popular culture festival that celebrates the all encompassing world of TV, films, comics, literature, sci-fi, horror, cosplay and art in all its various guises under one roof. As well as Q&A panels, there will be cosplay, autograph sessions, prop displays and a busy marketplace filled to the brim with a cornucopia of memorabilia and various treasures to be sought out.
Special guests include Emmy award winning script-writer and co-creator of Red Dwarf Doug Naylor together with Red Dwarf’s Chris Barrie (Rimmer), Norman Lovett (Holly) and Hattie Hayridge (Holly). Caroline Munro (Dracula A.D. 1972, Sinbad, The Spy Who Loved Me), Paul McGann (Withnail & I, Alien 3, Doctor Who), Peter Davison (Doctor Who), Valerie Leon (Blood from the Mummy’s Tomb, Carry on Matron, Carry on Girls), Julian Glover (Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back, Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, Harry Potter & Game of Thrones), Artist & illustrator Rob Richardson and the one and only utterly fabulous Bunny Galore who recently reached the semi finals of Britain’s Got Talent with the hilarious all singing, all dancing Dame Nation!
Wendy & Gill Bell, Directors of Popcorn, said: “It’s really exciting to have these classic British actors appearing at Popcorn, we are looking forward to hearing their perspectives on their career defining roles and of course getting a selfie or two! We can’t wait to welcome fans to Popcorn at the wonderful Magna to enjoy our very exciting inaugural show.”
