Anyone checked yet?  I am prepared to phone around tomorrow, starting 
with WB West End, if no one else has heard anything.

I've been 95% off the scene for a few days, but I did see Julie's 
message and immediately checked the UCI and Odeon cinemas online.  I 
had signed up to get e-mailed when the HP movie tickets were on sale 
and haven't heard from them yet.  I can't remember if I tried Warner 
though.

Odeon is plugging the film as a "coming soon", but it's not listed in 
the website area for booking tickets (not that I would book them over 
the internet).  When I phoned them before they told me that tickets 
usually go on sale a month before opening, but I rang them today and 
they said "as soon as possible" and then "7-10 days" - so take your 
pick! Apparently, the Odeon, Leics Square will not sell tickets on 
advance booking until the running time and certificate of the film 
are confirmed. Yeah, so Leeds just fancied raking in some advance 
cash?  

Catherine, let us know what Warner said.

Re the showing we want to go for, we have to make a decision on one 
thing or the other, so I suggest we plump for the early evening show, 
that would be somewhere around 6pm or 7pm.  If Dai really wants to go 
to the first sitting, he coulg go twice [:-)].  I'm assuming a late 
slot would be out for most people.  

I'm just about to leave the office, but will do a tot up of numbers 
when I get home.
