London: 23 January 2008
www.lsq.tv for all premieres
Flash Alert! Signing for fans is a speciality of Jack Nicholson and he did not disappoint tonight. He spent no time talking to the media and all the time at the fanline. He posed and bent to sign lots of boards. On the other hand, Morgan Freeman spent all his time talking to the media and none at all fanside. Go figure. Slow to get going this premiere too. The red carpet was late rolling out and the fans only got going when Jack appeared. Director Rob Reiner spent loads of time with both fans and media - a happy balance at last. Co-star and Brit Rowena King looked elegant and looked to be really enjoying the experience. Folk came from all over the world as usual. Near me were people from Japan, South Bend Indiana (where they made Studebaker cars apparently) and Sri Lanka. One low spending fan told me that earlier he'd been to Prime Minister's question time (it's every Wednesday at noon) at no cost and then wandered up to the Square for this no cost treat. And they say London's expensive. A host of other celebs showed up to delight the crowd. Most popular with the fans was Al Murray in a retro brown velvet suit. He who signed a few. Vanessa Feltz was frozen but obliged the fans. Other celebs spotted...
