1hr 55mins.
It'll be tight on time if they want to use the same screen. I've been to screenings where I've been seated 20 mins before the start. I'll watch this space. I can't make the 8.30 screening so I hope there's some clarification on on what's happening

Running time is said to be one hour 52 minutes so that doesn't give much time in between each screening! Is this the first time they have had two screenings on the same night for the same free film? Have not noticed it before -Lothian Road, Edinburgh has two as well but the early screening is best for me as I don't like being out too late at night, expecially now that the nights are drawing in. Yes! A sign of old age I know!!!

but it's 8:45 not 8:30
I still think it's two screenings the Heat code still gives 18:30 options as does the ticket link I have and Heat can easily fill a screening (considering got turned away for oversubscription of A-Team ) so I think they've put on a second screening for other mags.
I guess they run things tighter at the cinemas I go to as there a few times I've walked out to find a queue of people waiting for the next one outside.

It is still showing at 6.30pm. I hope it will be at 6.30pm as otherwise I won't be able to make it/last until 8.45pm.

Can someone help pleeeeeeeeease.....
I was lucky enough to obtain tickets to go and see "life as we know it". On my tickets the showing time in 6:30pm however I have just read on this site that the showing has now changed to 8:45pm. As a different time is displayed on my tickets print off does this mean that they are no longer valid??
Thanks in advance for your help

Its looking like some cinemas are doing 2 screenings at 18.30 and 20.45.
But maybe it might be worth ringing the cinema on the day and double checking just in case it is a cock up

As far as I know, it is the screeenings that were originally set for 20.30 that have been changed to 20.45.
Please note that due to circumstances beyond our control the start time of the screening of Life As We know It has been changed from 8.30pm to 8.45pm, your ticket is still valid.

my metrocentre tickets still show 6.30, logged on to showfilmfirst and the ticket details on there still show 6.30 too. I think I'll go for 6.30 and then if it is later I can just have a wander and go back for 8.45. at least I won't have missed it then. Most unusual having the same film at two different times on the same day. especially at my cinema. Has anyone emailed SFF to enquire about it? I think I'll do that now. I'll get back to you if miracles do happen and I get a reply !
