    Lol, I'm back! What did you think? The red carpet bit was great - we had Elton & his partner David Furnish behind us on the carpet! And I was shocked to see Nicole Kidman! I had a quick google this morning and it didn't seem she wasn't even in the country, so had ruled out any hope of her being there! We had front row seats too, which was brill. Shame the movie was a bit of a let down - waaaaaay too long! Great experience, though. :)

    I really enjoyed it, they showed elton arriving on the big screen so you were probably on there too :j actually i think we all were but i prefer not to think about that :eek:
    We were front row centre which was amazing when Hugh was doing his speech etc. where were you?!
    I liked the film, I had low expectations but feel like it's got a lot of bad press, it was actually quite good if a bit slow in parts.

    All in all a great experience, I agree!
    Three cheers for free chocolate and popcorn - hip, hip...... :j :j :j

    We were centre left, about 5 seats along from the girl who got handed the signed HJ poster. If I recall correctly - A18 & A19. I was so thankful for the popcorn! I was starving after rushing around all day, so the popcorn was my breakfast!

    Wasn't Alex Zane a cutie? So funny when he was interviewing NK.. getting it all wrong, bless him. And he fidgeted nervously throughout their speeches. :)

    I was so excited to see Elton behind us, I walked part of the way along the carpet almost tripping backwards, pulling my friends arm "LOOK! LOOK!", whilst she was the model of decorum refusing to turn around, haha! But, yeah, I think they probably showed everyone coming in. Shame there wasn't a 10 minute delay so we could watch it back! :D

    We were next to that girl lol, A24 & 25!! He seemed to be looking at me to take that poster but I was thinking I'm not carrying that home, it's not even signed :rotfl:

    He was very cute, I liked it when he was trying to get his little card back and Hugh Jackman's speech was funny too

    I had a really strange experience after the screening, i was waiting to use the ladies because it was packed and everyone else had left the theatre. I noticed all the security at the doors when all of a sudden Elton John walked past us and was ushered out through the men's loos at the front!!! I couldn't believe it, I was doing what you was poking my bf in the arm and trying to get him to look because he was so busy talking he hadn't noticed :T

    You can always see yourself on T4 lol
