Win family tickets to the Paddington premiere!

Who doesn’t love Paddington? (Put your hand down, you at the back.)

If you don’t have small children, you may have missed the news that he’s coming to the big screen very soon – 28th November to be precise.

Want to see Paddington as you’ve never seen him before?

Paddington bear new movie

(I’m always a bit nervous about remakes of beloved childhood characters, but from what I’ve seen of this, it looks like it’s very carefully done, and Paddington looks a lot like I imagine him when he isn’t a line drawing if you see what I mean 😉 )

Anyway, to celebrate the film’s release and the fact that Paddington will be available to stream later this year on Amazon Prime Instant Video (free trial if you haven’t already) we’ve teamed up with Amazon to give away 2 x family passes to the premiere this Sunday 23rd November in London.

As this is a pretty short notice event, competition is only running until Thursday evening (20th November). Please note, the prize is tickets only, no travel – you have to get yourself to the London West End for 1.30 on Sunday 23rd November. Easy entry via the lovely Gleam app below – don’t worry if you’re a first time commenter and your comment doesn’t show immediately, it’s part of my anti spam defence.

Good luck!

    Paddington – I loved all the books and the programme

  6. Paddington without question! B would be over the moon to win, he can’t wait for it to come out. We followed some of the Paddington trail in London last week, and took him to the station to see the original bronze statue – he was unbearably (!) happy (there are photos on Instagram). Age is no barrier to Paddington adoration, I’ve still got all my Paddington books, toys and autograph book from when I was a child (and I bought myself a mug for my birthday last week too!)

  7. Paddington – no other choice!!
    Fab giveaway, fingers crossed 🙂
