Yeah I read in the paper this morning people had been queuing since Monday with tents but were then told that they took up too much space/didn't look nice so the tents had to go O_O Hope that was after the major rainfall last night...

I hardly think it was people related to HP that said that, it'd would've been security and/or police monitoring the usually already crowded Trafalgar Square.

Wow. Just wow. Here I thought the queues for the book releases were bad/ridiculous.

I have a friend who started queuing for a wristband this morning and said there were several hundred people in front of her. I don't think that's too bad considering "several hundred people" had already been there since yesterday! I'm kind of envious for those going, I'm sure it'll be quite a spectacle, but I'm not queuing for four days >.>

I just cannot begin to understand it. Premieres are so terribly underwhelming and that's even getting into them, which these crazies won't. All to catch a glimpse of some actors?
