Never found a problem getting the phone back I think there'll be a much longer queue for the toilets (given the length of the film) at the end than the one for people collecting phones. I always sit and wait through all the credits and by then I get the phone back straight away with no waiting.

Oh yes. It's the Sky superscreen, when you walk into the foyer, turn immediately right for the stalls. I won't tell you how to get to the balcony as those seats are MINE. :p

They may not even take your phone at Swiss Cottage the Sky ticket says '

Security and Identification: Please note that security will be checking guest list and ID at this premiere screening. These screenings will
take place simultaneous with the London premiere and standard premiere-level security will be in operation. Bag searches may be
performed for all guests. Mobile phones must be switched off and in some locations may be confiscated for the duration of the screening.
These security measures will operate without exception. Please leave any mobile phones and other non-permitted items at home as some
locations may enforce temporary confiscation.

Just noticed the bit about ID and guest list though, do you think they'll actually bother?
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!
