Preference of cinemas:- 1. Glasgow Renfield Street Cineworld, 2. Glasgow Showcase, 3. Braehead Odeon, 4. Vue Fort, 5 Glasgow Springfield Quay, 5. any other cinema in Glasgow area including Hamilton
Also Falkirk, Dunfermline and Stirling but these are rarely used for free previews.

We don't control the codes or their release dates. But common sense would say whenever the Mail on Sunday hits the shops?

Stayed up til 2 this morning, no code... online at 8.20 on a Sunday morning and guess what, Glasgow tickets are gone! What is it with us Glaswegians? Could it be something to do with the fact that of 45 (a record?) screenings, only 2 are in Scotland....? I feel an e-mail coming on.

or maybe just not bother... it's only a week since the last Mail screening of Mr Poppers Penguins... as far as I remember no-one reported being asked for a paper.

I've been to hundreds of screenings and can't remember the last time someone asked for a paper and people still worry about it every single time.

I'll go and b*y a paper! We may be on the late side next Sunday... 10.20 or so... I suppose if there is a chance that we can be turned away and we want to ask for free vouchers for next time it better to be well prepared!

Last time the Mail screening was overbooked and people were turned away!, but not us, we were in premier seats!

Ok, let me explain this once and for all. Of course the papers want you to b*y them, they want to make money. But there is no mention on the tickets that you will need to show a page from a paper, now is there. Sometimes there is even more than one code for the same screening from different sources, and only one stipulated the use of a magazine page. There is no way any usher would be remotely bothered as to who would have to show the page and who wouldn't. In fact they are not bothered anyway. It always says you have to show ID as well and only very few, very select cinemas actually ask you for it. So I'd say you and everybody else can sleep easily, and I really don't want this topic cropping up over and over again. In fact, the more people show up with an additional newspaper page, the worse, as it alerts the usher unnecessarily.
