i have having serious envy issues here! i know i'm going to miss everything on sunday as there's just no bloody time to do anything if you're watching 4 films in a day. half an hour between films will probably mean i only get time to run to the toilet and back!

i will have maybe half an hour in the morning to have a wonder about. think i'll do that empire subscription if i can afford it, looks good!

Thanks everyone for your help and updates.

I'm going to take fashion advice from 'Celini' (see her avatar) and wear my 'BAZINGA' t-shirt tomorrow.

Feel free to come up and say Hello. It's always nice to meet a fellow FMUKer.

To answer earlier questions. You MUST PREBOOK YOUR SESSIONS. The queue at the box office at 9.45am was ridiculous so get there early. Ones that were sold out online have an allocation at the box office but only limited availability so are completely selling out already. I strongly advise getting here as early as you can.

Well I have booked tomorrow and Sunday's sessions but they really dont know how to handle comp winners at the box office as they have no list of names or instructions from the PR company so you better hope you get a helpful person at the box office!

The lady upgraded my tickets as I was standing next to the winner of the cineworld unlimited comp and when she gave him the diamond wristbands, she gave me too to apologise for the disorganisation.
