I haven't got a credit card & can see no way around this.

Off to read some Kafka, now.
I used my debit card, do you not have one of those? They always ask for card details when booking online, done it a few times now.

No cards at all (i was silly with them a few years ago, thankfully now debts all pa*d)

Not to worry, have seen all films except for Amour & that clashes with another screening for me.

Perhaps someone could post these codes on the free film thread ?

Do you go with a friend? Could they not use their card? I have a "fake" account for this sort of thing - well its a Visa Electron and has virtually nothing in the account just transfer money into it to save booking fees when required etc.

oh, perhaps someone come change the posting for this on the free films page.

whilst it correctly states that you SHOULD present tickets plus the page from the newspaper, the booking process will result in you being able to pick up your tickets from the booking machines....therefore you will have 2 standard / ordinary tickets.....and no requirement to present any newspaper.

this may save any of you the cost of b*ying this rag of a "newspaper"...

We're about to have pancakes too - the Scotch variety, but we're not making them ourselves. We're being Hobbits, as it's our second breakfast!
