I went to Trafalgar Square to take pictures and chat for a while with some of my friends that had been queing since this morning. Vibe's great and the weather is still nice for them *crosses fingers it stays that way*

iirc from other events Trafalgar Square holds 10,000 people. There were 8,000 wristbands and I'm assuming the rest will be whoever rocks up tomorrow and people standing around the square.

They were still setting things up as I passed but it already looked great - really too bad I can't check it out tomorrow (even from a distance) as I'll be at the O2.

Do you think that given the seating, guest list thing that tey've only given out the number of tickets to match the number of seats for the regional screenings?

I really can't be fagged running to get there for 6 to have to sit through that drongo Alex Wahtshisname talking inane gibberish to some -Z "celebrities" in the red carpet nonsence. I'd prefer to turn up for 6.40 take my chance on where they seat me?

I think it'll be the same as always. If your regional screening is usually oversubscribed it'll likely be the same. They haven't allocated seats yet, they'll do that on the day.

I expect I'll run for 6 then but take some reading materials, or blag my seat and then go and get something to eat/drink in the cafe downstairs!

I am currently half way through part one now.

Good news about the reviews. I know what you mean there are like five clips on Digital spy and I
dont want to look at them.
