THE 9th annual Cult TV Festival will take place at Southport's Floral Hall complex this autumn.

Anyone who likes television shows from past, present and future, will have the chance to meet fellow fans, enjoy star interviews, attend behind-the-scenes workshops, take part in discussions and purchase all kinds of memorabilia during the jam-packed 73 hours of entertainment over the weekend of October 25-28.

Cult TV is a charity benefit event organised by unpaid volunteers. The chosen charities for 2002 are UNICEF and the Southport Community Christmas Lights Appeal.
