The second Festival of the Force of 2025 took place on Sunday 25th May at the Railway Institute in York and along with queues around the block, walls packed with costuming groups, artists, traders and much more there was the Panel Room, which saw seven guests take to the stage across the day. Mark Newbold was stage host, and in this second episode from the show we hear his conversations with Return of the Jedi performers Simon Williamson and Hugh Spight.
