The Antwerp Con this year had about 120 dealers and great guests.
Aside of the traditional elements of a convention like the Q&As, signing sessions, cosplayers there were totally different things to see like the wrestling matches, robot wars, an extended gaming area with new but also retro arcade games, etc.
Q&A Ellie Kendrick and Ian McElhinney
(In very short)
Both could only speculate how the story of the Game of thrones would continue.
Both gave their opinion on who should be on the Iron Throne eventually, but this was also just speculation.
Q&A Gates McFadden
(In short)
Gates MacFadden has been a teacher in acting, choreography and directing for many years.
She first refused the role in the Star Trek series, but later she was convinced to accept the role as Doctor Crusher.
She speaks very good French.
