Star Wars Marathon Health Warning

Thursday

To mark the release of, Episode III: Return of the Sith, the final installment of the Star Wars series, London's UCI Empire in Leicester Square will host a world exclusive all-day screening on Monday May 16th.

The cinema group will show all six Star Wars films in release order with the grand finale screening of the final installment three days before its 19 May worldwide release.

Starting at 7.00am the event will last about 14 hours with additional breaks for meals. Anyone booking to see the first five films will atomatically get a ticket for the latest one.

The evening's premiere showing of "Revenge of the Sith" attended by George Lucas and the stars of the film will take place across the street at the Odeon Leicester Square.

Booking for the 1,000 tickets starts on Monday 25th April from the box-office and online. Details - www.uci.co.uk

Health Warning

14+ hours is the time it takes to fly from New York to Tokyo, Los Angeles to Sydney or Singapore to London.

I don't want to worry anyone but Deep Vein Thrombosis may be associated with any form of travel where passengers remain sitting for lengthy periods over 5 hours.

So there you go Star Wars fans - make sure you loosen your clothes, take your shoes off, do deep breathing, wave your arms about, drink plenty of water and walk around the cinema bending and straightening your legs every half hour and try to do it without disturbing anyone sitting by you!

Sounds fun. Wonder what the tickets will be fetching on eBay?
