Hi there,

I will be travelling to London for the 'Last Chance Harvey' UK Premiere on Wednesday 3rd June, however am unaware as to what time I should get there for?

I would love to be able to meet Dustin and Emma, however do not know where or what time I should start standing from in order to do so, so if anybody could give me times and areas to stand at the Odeon West End, I would be extremely grateful.

Many Regards, and if you're going yourself, enjoy it!

Ahh fantastic, thanks alot. I hope to arrive for 10 so that gives me a few hours to look around London first. I'm sorry to keep asking things, but usually when does the last person enter the cinema? I can either take the 8.00 bus home or 11.30? Am unsure if d miss people leaving at 8?

Once again any feedback would be highly appreciated.

I believe guests were to be seated by 6:45pm for this one.

Have a swing by the cinema earlier if you are in the West End so you can see how busy it is. The only problem with the Odeon West End is it has the smallest barrier area so fills with tourists quickly after about 5pm.

Ah okay thanks :)
I'll go to Leicester Square from 2pm. Now I don't know if you'll be able to answer this final question (promise!), but if I get the 8pm bus home, and leave at 6.45 - 7.00pm from Leicester Square, will I have enough time to get back to the Victoria Coach Station from Leicester Square? I don't know my way around London, so am unaware of how long it would take me to get back to Victoria Coach Station? I want to be back at the coach station for 7.45? Do you know the quickest way of getting from Leicester Square to Victoria Coach Station?

Kind of complex, I know, and I do apologise, but if you could help me with this you're a genius, however if you can't, I thank you anyway for your previous help!

HI to all, i,am also going Last Chance Harvey prem on webnesday, i,am arriving there aft wk around 5. I,ve met Emma Thompson n Dustin Hoffman be4, they are really nice ppl, always talking to fans n having a laugh w paps

I dnt have to wait hours n end 4 the stars to arrive, cos i,ve got good friends that i,ve known a few years that always keep a space 4 me.

If u are a premier virgin, then i would say that get there around 1 0r 2, just to be safe.

Well Joe, if yr coach leave Victoria, at 8, try to leave the prem bye 7 the latest, most of the cast will be inside bye then.

Best way to Victoria via Odeon West End is walk up to Angus Steak house, n stay on that side, straight across 2 main roads, and then catch a number 38 bus from Green park road.it,s bout 10 mins drive to Victoria.

That,s the best way.

Ah brilliant thankyou :)

Would that take me directly to the Victoria Coach Station? Or do I have to walk anywhere else, because if so i'll take a look at some maps :)

Do you think I would see most of the stars, mainly Dustin and Emma, if I left at 7? Or would you recommend me catching home the 11 o'clock bus? Or is it not worth doing that?

As everyone is to be seated by 6:45pm everyone should have arrived by then. Dustin is nice, it depends on how rushed they are if they will do photos or not, but I have seen him do photos before : )

As for your journey, if you do not know London well, I would advise getting the underground from Leicester Square. Take the Picadilly Line to Green Park, then change for the Victoria line there. Its about a 5 min walk through Victoria Train Station to the Bus Station. Tube journey should take 10-15 mins so gives you plenty of time : )
