In tiny screen 2, which only has 103 seats. At least it's going to be intimate and I might get a peek at the talent from the first row, with my nose touching the screen - who knows, Judi Dench might just decide to watch the film sitting next to me! (Get a grip, Beate).

Does it say screen 2 on the tickets? There is nothing showing in screen 1 that night so it is strange they aren't using that one.

Yes, it does indeed. Maybe they are using both screens and the comp winners are getting shoved in the smaller one?

That is what I am thinking. I probably won't know where I am sitting until just beforehand as I am still waiting for Thinkjam to let me know where to collect them from.

When are you guys thinking of being there? I don't think we can be there much before 6.15pm but that should be plenty of time I hope for some red carpet action.

I need to pick up the tickets from someone at the Washington Mayfair Hotel. Which is the same as for a previous premiere I've been to so I reckon it's just an appointed PR agent again.

Beate, are you planning to wait outside of the red carpet? Once you're on it they won't really let you stop and stare. You don't have to be seated until 7.15pm so I assume guests arrive anywhere from 6.30 onwards.
