The film started late, as we had to wait for the intro and some of the actors (Elizabeth McGovern, Felicity Jones, Zoe Tapper, and I think it James Norton(?), and the writers to come to the front. We were told Luke Treadway was stranded somewhere in Jamaica(?) so could not make the screening but his twin brother was there (more of him later!). After the intro, and none of the actors spoke, the guy introducing invited everyone for drinks at the cinema bar after the film, apparently there was a £1,000 tab, which had to be used up! And then after that to the party at All Bar One.
The film felt like it should be a play in a theatre, then you would not have to focus on what the camera is showing you, and your eyes could wander around the stage, to make it a bit more interesting. Also, it frustratingly took a long time to get the story told, after a lot of pouting from Felicity Jones. However, there were a few funny moments. Best bits were the little boy's bombs and the naive little sister, Kitty.
After the film, we followed everyone to the free bar, and after getting our drinks, we went on to the balcony to enjoy it. ritamistry then left after finishing her drink, and I stayed behind for another and mingled with the stars. I spied Harry (Luke's brother and went and chatted to him, as I met him at the You Instead premiere and after party, where he and Luke both attended, and I got them mixed up (they are identical twins!) Whether he remembered me or not, he asked how I was, which was rather nice!
Then I spoke to Felicity Jones, thought she was much better in Chalet Girl. But in real life, she is awfully thin! I also spoke to Emil Lager, who had a minor role as the Chauffeur, and was quite pleased that I spotted him. Well ritamistry did 
I saw Ellie Kendrink (the litte sister in the film) and a few other familiar faces, but it was getting late and I had go.....Needless to say, I managed to a few photos with the stars.
