    Did you actually manage to get tickets then?

    Everyone else seems to have got the 'No Tickets Left' message...

    Same here.
    confirmed Virgin Customer..... but no tickets left.
    Does anyone have a list of what the locations were anyway ?
    Would be a great consolation if my local was not listed;)

    Morning Glory looks to be the better offering than No strings attached..... but beggars cannot be choosers !:o

    word of warning - get there early

    we had this email the other day for the screenings yesterday, and the cinemas were oversubscribed

    so im wondering if they offered way more tickets than usual, or perhaps it was just because we rarely get a showing in our town, or maybe because more people were free due to it being a b/h weekend, or just for once everyone who got tickets decided to show up - but word to the wise

    F

    Completely agree.
    My screening completely full, half an hour before the start time.
    I do not know if SFF and cinema have completely mis-calculated, or if some peeps printed duplicates of the same ticket.... or if there is another forger at large!!

    I have noticed at recent screenings that they now collect the tickets in..... so hopefully if they get enough complaints from those who couldn't get in, they will check the tickets of those who did get in to ensure they were all genuine.
    So I would strongly encourage those who were turned away to contact SFF to make them aware of the situation. Otherwise it could be a frustrating 2011 if we are frequently turned away when we have genuine tickets.
    First time this has happened to me. I hope it is the last.:(

    Did anyone have any luck with that Virgin free tickets just posted? I got a 'no tickets left' message - as usual on SFF these days!!

    Apparently Virgin meant the 4th - because there's tickets now at all venues. Go quickly :)
