Sci-fi fans celebrate Star Trek at convention - PICTURES and VIDEO
Sci-fi fans were able to get their geek on at a special convention in Telford.
Thousands descended upon Telford International Centre this weekend, for a chance to meet big name stars including Bruce Boxleitner of Tron & Babylon 5 fame, Robert Picardo from Star Trek and Stargate, David Blue from Stargate Universe, and Claudia Christian from Babylon 5, to name a few.
The cult stars stopped and chatted with delighted fans, as well as signing autographs for them.
Robert "The Hologram Doctor" Picardo said it had been a "pleasure" to meet local fans.
He said: "It's been an absolutely superb event, it's a really special event of its kind actually, in that it's a much calmer pace and you actually get the opportunity to properly chat with fans.
"There's no hustle bustle, quick photo opportunity and that's it, you actually get to spend a bit of time with the fans, which I think is just wonderful.
"Telford too is a wonderful place, in particular Ironbridge, some of us got a chance to visit the extraordinary bridge before this weekend's event started. It's astonishing."
David Blue, who starred as Eli Wallace in Stargate Universe, said: "It's been awesome so far, the fans here are incredible, it's been fantastic to have the chance to properly interact with them on a more personal level and Telford itself is beautiful. Can I move here?"
The Out of the Ashes 2.0 event is the fourth year an event of its kind has been running for in Telford and was organised by FCD Events.
The event is also taking place tomorrow.
