AT THIS YEAR’S LFCC, THE FORCE FLOWED WITH STAR WARS LEGENDS, MERCH, AND MORE.
Launched in 2004 and initially taking place at Wembley Exhibition Centre, London Film and Comic Con quickly established itself as one of the top-tier events in the UK, bringing guests from every corner of the genre and entertainment world to the capital every year. The event has moved around London, from Wembley to Earls Court and now Olympia.
No matter where it calls home, LFCC brings the stars with it. In years past, Star Wars luminaries such as Ray Park, Simon Pegg, Carrie Fisher, Jake Lloyd, Julian Glover, Daniel Logan, Bob Anderson, Femi Taylor, John Ratzenberger, and Robert Watts have attended and signed at the show. This year’s event brought another huge swathe of guests to Olympia covering the width and breadth of the Star Wars experience: Peter Mayhew, Rogue One‘s Mads Mikkelsen, Ian McDiarmid, Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back producer Gary Kurtz, Dave Prowse, Jeremy Bulloch, Star Wars: The Old Republic voice actor Neil Kaplan, stunt legend Vic Armstrong, the sons of the late stunt co-ordinator Peter Diamond, Warwick and Frazer Diamond, General Cracken Mike Stevens, A New Hope protocol droid Wendy Leech, Mon Mothma actress Caroline Blakiston, Rebel soldier Alan Tomkins, Imperial officers Jasper Jacob and Mike Havord, Royal Guard Quentine Pierre, First Order officer Pip Torrens, stormtroopers David Field, Stephen Bayley, and Alan Austen, and signing for the first time stormtrooper John Galvin.
