in Quantum of Solace - Bond 22 (2008)
This topic is for all the information, links, photos etc. from the premiere tomorrow night in London.

To start here's a Times report on the upcoming premiere... http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/film/london_film_festival/article5031937.ece
Prince William and Prince Harry will attend the world premiere of the latest Bond instalment, which is expected to draw the fortnight-long festival’s biggest crowd of star-spotters to Leicester Square.
Despite the mix of royalty, music and movie-star glamour, the limelight could be at least momentarily stolen by the arrival of 007’s iconic Aston Martin DBS. The car is to take prime position in Leicester Square for the premiere.

    Arrived in the Square just as Craig walked down the steps and disappeared from view. Heard the screaming women though.

    I'm very excited for all of you who have the opportunity to attend (or even be near!) something like this. Good for you. I want to hear everything about it! B-)

    You obviously haven't heard how cold it is in London tonight! :) Wouldn't have caught me out there for all the tea in China!

    I'd be there gladly---the Midwestern U.S.A. is no picnic in the winter, though it's rather mild at the moment---it would be fun, then off to a local pub for some antifreeze... :D

    It was pretty cold. Mind you it was snowing when I left home this morning so I can live with this.
    :D

    Well I missed pretty much all of the premiere itself, by the time I turned up it was a crowd of people in the freezing cold and little else. Luckily I had a ticket for the BFI screening with some of the members from CBN. We did see some silvery blacked out Mercedes afterwards though heading to the after party. I'm sure it was the princes and Craig sharing a Martini ;)

    The atmosphere in the cinema was good, although I couldn't help feeling some of the people were purely there to up their status rather than to watch the film!

    Full credit to Daniel for having the courage not to wear the lifts.

    This was my first premier - they're manic affairs!

    Got some good autographs: Barbara Broccoli, Michael G Wilson, Marc Forster, Maryam d'Abo, and some Spanish Woman from the X Factor who assumed I wanted her signature.

    Unfortunately, Daniel Craig and the rest of the cast were advised to avoid our section of the crowds, as we were practically breaking the barriers in desperation to see the stars!



    My favourite part of the night, was a little exchange between myself, and Barbara Broccoli:

    Me: "Barbara, you saved the series!"
    Barbara: "No, you guys did!"


    Nice little moment {[]

    Did you know?

    Miley Cyrus was in Paris, France when QOS premiered there? She rode the Eurostar to Paris. While Daniel Craig and the cast of QOS were in Paris, Miley Cyrus was also there promoting her debut CD!

    Would you want to see Miley Cyrus at a Bond premiere?

    I have never understood why celebs thinking wearing that sort of thing is either fashionable or sensible. It looks stupid!

    Olga on the other hand looked amazing :x ;)

    A very unfortunate purple pick. But the muscle tone makes up for it. :D
