  • My local Odeon it's Tuesdays, other cinemas it's Saturday, Sunday or Monday. I guess it depends how many screens they have and what else is going on.

  • Here's Little Nellie! 90s reissue of a 60s kit - she was not easy to put together. However did Q and his assistants manage it so fast? I printed some screenshots onto photo quality paper and mounted on foamboard for the backdrop.
