Oh what a surprise, after around 30 attempts, every single one having Manchester Printworks available, they are the first to become unavailable.

Took me 45 mins to get a ticket, reason you can't register as everyone is crashing the site

Other locations went much faster than Printworks!

Thanks for the Les Mis link. Took sooooo much time but got there in the end. Very happy daughter who has been waiting for ages for this one.

Managed to get 2 tickets going through FF, said an email with the tickets would be sent but nothing come through yet. Won't tell MIL yet just in case it doesn't appear.

Worth noting as well that the terms state you will need page of paper with the code along with the tickets.

Readers who successfully claim Les Miserables preview screening tickets must present a copy of this weekend's Mail on Sunday page with the ticket and have ID available if required. No photocopies of the page will be accepted. Tickets are not for resale, no cash alternative. No late admittance. The cinema reserves the right to refuse admission. In the event of a dispute the cinema manager’s decision is final. To the cashier: On presentation of this page, with a valid ticket for Les Miserables, cert 12A, please admit up to 2 people, number of seats on ticket, to the 6.30pm or 7pm preview screening Tuesday January 8, 2013.

Not sure how strictly cinemas will be enforcing the requiring the paper page. Of all the previews I go only the Virgin Media ones ask for ID occasionally.

I have never been asked but seeing as paper is out tomorrow & I've free tickets to Wreck It Ralph in the morning I can get paper on way if I know I've got the tickets. No email come through yet with tickets on, has anyone else got one?

Tickets have been sent out but as site has crashed due to high demand, I would expect any further e tickets to be delayed too.
Also check your spam folder.

A tip, always take a pdf of your ticket when you book it. Never rely on an eticket being issued.

All I saw was a sea of Available's as I scrolled down to Printworks, I was scrolling quite fast I admit.

I'm getting tickets for various people and I could see the various cinemas going.
Also Manchester have smaller screens in comparison to some.
