Yep, sorry folks can't make tonight. If you are going have a great time and hope you get some great photos.

Walking through london yesterday evening i snapped Homer as he was leaving Stringfellows, at least i think it was him. I managed to get a close up but came out a bit blury as i was pushed out the way by minders. ;)

Is that your photo DJ?! Wow! You weren't joking about taking a close up were you? Ha! He was leaving Stringfellows was he? Or is this a joke? I'm confuzzled... :confused2: Lol...

Anyways... I'm so so sorry! I really wanted to go tonight, but I live so far away it's going to be too late now isn't it? And I was confused as to where it was being held, as one website said Leicester Square and another said the o2 Dome... So I just left it :( I hope whoever goes gets some good snaps :party:

Have fun!

I went!!

I thought I'd have to get there super early to make sure my friend and I got to the front of the barriers, so we got there at 9am (ish) to find the place virtually deserted!
So, we left and went back at midday and didn't realise the yellow carpet went inside the dome as well as out, but thanks to needing a trip to the loo, we found a good spot at the front of the barriers and in front of some type of sculpure thing (where you can do virtual dancing or something), so no one pushed behind me!!

I was quite disappointed to see that not even one of the actors who do any of the voices turned up for the premiere, neither did Matt Groening. But there were quite a few other people there. (I'll try posting some pictures after writing this, although they're not brilliant because we were indoors and people kept moving or getting in the way of the shot!)
About half of the people who turned up signed for autographs, some were much better than others. Some of the people who were really good at signing were Robert Kazinsky, Jimmy Carr, Simon Webb, Barney from CBBC, Frank Bruno, the '4 poofs and a piano' from Friday Night with Jonathan Ross and David Grant. Unfortunately, I didn't get James Nesbit's autograph which i was quite upset about (but he was kept ages by every different camera crew and he had his 4 kids with him), we were also missed by Vic Reeves, 2 of the McFly boys, Stephen Gately, Matt Willis, Richard & Judy, Steve Redgrave, Ray (from x-factor) and Gail Porter although most of them did sign lots of autographs, they just missed us!

I did enjoy myself though and finally managed to get a poster from the barriers after one of the nice workers there found me one!! And I cannot wait until the I see the movie, I think it's going to be brilliant!!!

Oooh, there were also 2 pigs, one to look like Harry Potter, and one who had a spiderman outfit on!!

I hope that anyone else who went had a nice time as well!

this must be a first? a premiere with no cast or crew turning up at all?
