Fans of comic books, video games and sci-fi will barely be able to contain their excitement – Bath is hosting a Comic-Con event this March and there’s a stellar lineup that includes S Club 7’s (and Primeval actor) Hannah Spearritt and Colin Baker.

If superheroes, wizards, spaceships and zombies float your boat, you should make your way to the Bath Pavilion, where the event is taking place, as the organisers are inviting Bathonians to come and meet actors from film & TV, chat to comic artists, explore film props and cult memorabilia and take part in the Cosplay competition.
