Film: Casino Royale

Unusually a queue was forming outside The Riverside Theatre this evening. It's hardly a surprise though - when you screen the latest Bond film on the day of its release in a small cinema like this you're guaranteed to draw a crowd.

Equally unusual was the film stopping halfway through. A power cut caught everyone out in the middle of the centrepiece card game. When the emergency lighting kicked in the tension in the cinema was clearly visible.

A minute later we were back in the Casino. Fantastic stuff.
