• Get there at least 30 mins before the time of the viewing
• hand your ticket into the ticket collector, not where you buy tickets
• take sweets/popcorn/drinks etc in with you
• sit back and enjoy the movie
• take along some ID, just in case (tho I've never been asked for it)

Better hide them in your UNDERPANTS! :eek:

STAFF at one of Britain’s biggest cinema chains have been ordered to frisk customers’ pockets and bags to make sure they are not smuggling in food and drink.
Cineworld bosses said searches were necessary to stop people bringing in “inappropriate snacks” that could ruin the viewing enjoyment of others.
But an angry customer at one of the chain’s 78 cinemas said: “We felt we were being treated like criminals.”

Cinema staff to search Midland punters for food
Mar 21 2011 by Anuji Varma, Sunday Mercury

STAFF at Cineworld cinemas in the Midlands have been ordered to frisk customers’ pockets and bags to make sure they are not smuggling in their own food and drink.
Bosses from the chain said searches were necessary to stop people bringing in “inappropriate snacks” that could ruin the enjoyment of others.
Venues in Broad Street, and Star City, Birmingham are included in the clampdown on the chain’s 78 cinemas.

There should be 2 tickets for Limitless Shepherd's Bush for tonight available on The Times website, as I have just returned them. Hope someone from MSE manages to get them. Don't know the new password, sorry!

Quite a few people have had problems connecting to FMUK yesterday, myself included. I concluded that one of the servers between us and it was playing up as mobile connections were unaffected.

Hi G

Do you still have the spare ticket?

I am going but have one other that wants to come.

This would really help me out.

Thanks
