Police were called to a sci-fi convention after a confrontation between costumed characters from rival clubs.

Trouble flared when members of the Norwich Sci-Fi Club were refused entry to a fair hosted by the Norwich Star Wars Club at the University of East Anglia.

More than a dozen sci-fi fans from both groups, including some in fancy dress, were involved in the confrontation on Sunday after a member of the Norwich Sci-Fi Club attempted to get an autograph from Doctor Who actor Graham Cole.

It is understood the two groups had been involved in a long-running dispute and the hosts had warned their rivals to stay away after comments were posted on Facebook.

Illogical!

[Answerprancer]

I wonder if they had a face off with light sabres!

[cupid04]

Sorry Canary I got my sci-fi programmes mixed up. I don't deserve best answer.

[B00]

Hope the force was with them!

Lightweights ... we will prevail

"Get them we will"

I didn't realise that the moving pictures had reached Norfolk.

I wonder if they told the police 'these are not the droids you're looking for'?

[Octavius]

Them girls in the photo asked "Aren’t you a little short for a stormtrooper?” No wonder it kicked off.

NFN....Normal for Norfolk:-)

[baza]

which of the 2 girls was Sarah Brightman

[Booldawg]

The girl on the right has rugby player legs. Fact.

[baza]

^^^^ oh so cruel, the last time I saw legs like that they were holding up a snooker table.

[Baldric]

Norfolk Dumpling?

[Octavius]

Thats a bit unfair really, they are what 11, 12 maybe 15 at most?

And you wonder why they grow up with body confidence issues.

yes, very Daily Mailish comments here from old men going over the photos with magnifying glasses. Manners, please.

Its a pity you cannot nominate more than one best answer -cos this answer from carrust is worthy of a repeat;

"NFN....Normal for Norfolk:-)"
Used to see that NFN a lot in the diagnosis/symptoms box of the paperwork accompanying samples sent to a clinical lab I used to work in :)

[jno]

you can nominate any number of best answers but only one at a time
