Oops!

Can a moderator change that, please?

I knew what the date was and have seen an unofficial list of guests and showings. I was looking at that page with last year's date as a heading and underneath it said 7th so that's how I confused it.

I just wondered when they were going to put up anything official. The ticket office opened on 1 April for last year's.

Still nothing to be found and no answer from the NMM so I'll give it a miss.

Thanks - to be honest, I'm only really interested when AAWIL is on and Jenny appearing.

Pity there seems to be a problem with Facebook as it won't let me signup on either computer.

Ah yes, good point ;)

OK, I have no confirmation on Jenny turning up to chat about the movie. Yet.

Tickets going fast, if you want to be in with a chance of coming along, the tickets are available via the FFW website now.

You probably won't until almost the last minute as she still doesn't know herself if her filming schedule will allow her to attend.

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed

We viewed a screener of SPINE TINGLER: THE WILLIAM CASTLE STORY at a movie party I hosted and it went over extremely well. Hugely entertaining and worth seeing.
