Norman Reedus is dapper in a black coat as he hams it up with Walking Dead co-stars at London screening

 There was a full-on zombie sighting in London on Friday.

Members of The Walking Dead cast - most notably leading man Norman Reedus - congregated for a symposium called A Night With The Walking Dead.

The event was part of Walker Stalker, a Comic-Con-like convention gathering focused on the sci-fi series that's going on all weekend at London's Hamyard Hotel.

The 48-year-old Reedus, who plays Daryl Dixon on AMC series, was dressed in an all-black outfit of a trench coat, T-shirt, pants and shoes for the overseas outing. 

The actor, who also has a motorcycle-themed series called Ride with Norman Reedus airing on the network, wore his hair down and scruffy, as many viewers of the series are accustomed to. 

Among the show's other players who turned up for the outing in England included director Greg Nicotero; and actors Seth Gilliam (who plays Father Gabriel Stokes), Ross Marquand (Aaron), Alanna Masterson (Tara Chambler), Tom Payne (Paul 'Jesus' Rovia), Josh McDermitt (Dr. Eugene Porter), Austin Amelio (Dwight) and Christian Serratos (Rosita Espinosa).

Other of the show's main personalities scheduled to appear at the fan-driven event include Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who plays the barbed wire-bat-wielding Negan; and Andrew Lincoln, who plays protagonist Rick Grimes.

The evening celebrated the seventh season, giving attendees a sneak peek into the coming episode, which will air in both the UK and Fox next week. 

In addition to a screening and Q&A, fans had the opportunity to get autographs, signed portraits and selfies with the actors and actresses, and encouraged to dress up as their favorite characters from the program. 

Titled 'Say Yes', the twelfth episode takes things back to Alexandria, having concentrated on the Saviors in the previous instalment.

In a teaser for the episode, someone must make a morally challenging decision.

At present, the series has just seen Daryl (Norman Reedus) escape Neegan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan's) makeshift prison, having been captured by him at the start of the season.

Meanwhile, following Rosita (Christian Serratos') attempt to kill Negan, Eugene (Josh McDermitt) has been integrated into the Saviors community - last seen pledging his allegiance to Negan.

The twelfth episode is sure to explain whether Eugene's pledge is genuine or contrived.

Attendees at the event were asked to sign Non Disclosure Agreements given the top secret nature of the mega-popular series. 

The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9/8c on AMC.
