We had such a great time in Scarborough! The sun was shining, and the Spa Complex was an amazing backdrop for a weekend of sci-fi fun and games.

Jay and Erwyd battled it out three times a day with their lightsaber duel. Now that Erwyd has turned to the dark side, it’s up to Jay to keep the Sith Lord in check.

R2-D2 even showed up to watch one of their duels, but the little droid was sensible enough to keep out of reach of their superheated blades.

We were also filmed by Redshirt Films, for their convention video. Click here to watch it on YouTube, you can see us at around 3 minutes 37 seconds in.

Our  academies were a great success, with Star Wars fans of all ages being taught how to handle a lightsaber.

Some of our padawans came back again and again, thirsty for knowledge in the ways of the Force.

We also found time to hang out with some of the sci-fi fans.

Jay & Ewryd did some filming with Starwind Images, and Jay even got to face off against a medieval knight in armour.

We were also working alongside some well known names from the big sci-fi franchises, including Garrett Wang from Star Trek Voyager.

Check out our video highlights from the weekend:
