GAMERS, SCI-FI FANS and an assortment of comic book guys and gals journeyed to the RDS today for the MCM Ireland Comic Con.

Red Dwarf’s ‘Cat’ and ‘Holly’ were two of the (ahem) stars that were present on the second day of the convention along with Doctor Who’s Ian McNeice.

But of course the convention was likely as good an excuse as any to dress up in some elaborate costumes, take a look:
