To use the map:

October 24th, 2013 - 8:44pmJust went on. You type in Doctor Who in the search box and just underneath it it says Doctor Who: 50th Anniversary: Day of the Doctor or something like that. You click on that and it takes you to a page.

October 24th, 2013 - 8:47pmYep it’s on Vue too but not Odeon. I was checking the Hull ones. Ideally I’d go to the Odeon because it’s next door to Toys R Us!!!

Scott’s TARDIS
October 22nd, 2013 - 4:30pmI would prefer to watch it at cinemas because it’ll be great to talk to other fans!
TheExtremeBlueTARDIS
October 22nd, 2013 - 8:15pmTalking to the other fans would be good, but I am not confident enough to walk up to someone and I ask “Hey, so are you a big Whovian?”. Lol.
