Bond Fever is gripping the country prior to the general release of "Casino Royale" in cinemas on the 17th November.

"Daniel Craig stars as "007" James Bond, the smoothest, sexiest, most lethal agent on Her Majesty's Secret Service in Casino Royale. Based on the first Bond book written by Ian Fleming, the story, which has never been told on film until now, recounts the making of the world's greatest secret agent.

James Bond's first "007" mission leads him to Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), banker to the world's terrorists. In order to stop him, and bring down the terrorist network, Bond must beat Le Chiffre in a high-stakes poker game at Casino Royale. Bond is initially annoyed when a beautiful British Treasury official, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), is assigned to deliver his stake for the game and watch over the government's money. But, as Bond and Vesper survive a series of lethal attacks by Le Chiffre and his henchmen, a mutual attraction develops leading them both into further danger and events that will shape Bond's life forever."

The film stars: Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Judi Dench, Giancarlo Giannini, Jeffrey Wright, Mads Mikkelsen, Simon Abkarian and Catarina Murino

... but the big question is which of the stars will turn out on the night?

Crowds have been gathering all day - so get down to Leicester Square quick!
