Just checked the Doctor Who Live site again and they've now got this up:


Also that countdown clock on the page seems wrong... at 14:50 today it's showing 3 Days, 10 Hours and 10 Minutes to go which would put it at 01:00 on Friday (and well spotted sofieelis for my maths cock-up earlier). That can't be right surely.

Surely the answer is obvious?

And I think I'll be staying up on Thursday just in case

Thank you for that - I thought I was going mad

See, that's what's worrying me, there are conflicting times for the start of sale - I don't want to turn my pc on at 9am to find out they were all sold out just after 12/1 am.

The Ticketmaster web site says that the Cardiff tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday, and there are afternoon shows as well as evening ones... Cardiff International Arena doesnt seem to have its own web site, so I assume they do everything through Ticketmaster online, or the box office for phone queries..

I knew, just KNEW someone was going to say that! Mind you it WOULD explain that exploding chicken a couple of hours ago...

Keep an eye on the livenation web site for CIA as I believe they're the official partners and might get a different ticket allocation to going through the Ticketmaster site (even if they are the same bloomin' company these days). If I get time on Thursday I'll try and do a sweep over the usual sites and list any that look like having tickets.

I've just had my 1st newsletter from Sheffield Arena, no mention of being able to buy early, just letting me know that I can buy a VIP HOSPITALITY PACKAGE ticket for £115 Hmm, as there's 5 of us, I don't think I'll be doing that!

Or maybe I should leave Mr Ellis and the 3 kids at home and lap up the luxury on my own

Looks like the BBC sneaked the announcement out on 16 May

Thats just sick.





I see there dilemma though.

Dam!!!! None near Southampton. Well looks like I wont be going hopefully theyll bring out a DVD. Closest to me is London and that will be sold out in minutes.

And probably on Ebay within minutes after that... at vastly inflated prices of course

Coincidentally, if any Dalek scout forces are reading this, possibly after downloading the web via a secure facility in Utah, would you mind awfully finding out where said scalping scum are living and popping round for a quick extermination? Nothing fancy, just scare the crap out of 'em and *ZAP*. Ta muchly.

The clock on the website is now showing 1 day 22 hrs 21mins 32 secs,

so they've updated it to end at 9am friday - phew confusion over - I think, someone please check my adding up again

Bloody hell that wasn't fun...

Managed to get my tickets for Wembley but Ticketmaster (well, Live Nation, same company) were offering complete tosh. See tickets to the rescue with second row on the floor over on the right hand side. If it's any help to anyone here's the link:

http://www.seetickets.com/see/event....e=100&filler3=

In all honesty I'd rather have been up on the first tier of seating but considering that the first ticket I was offered (two minutes before 9 according to my clocks as well.. tsk tsk) was about two thirds of the way back down the arena I think this was better.

Managed to get 2nd row in block B2 on floor at Wembley for my Mum and Bro who want to go! Seetickets had them on sale about 8:55am..I just kept refreshing and luckily they came up early !!

Yeah, for some reason everyone seemed to go early, a tad annoying but there you go. Congrats though and hope they'll enjoy the show!

Block GG A16-A17 Adult Price A.

The Cardiff Ticketing has been a nightmare - through Ticketmaster.

I got in straight away at 9am and got 5 tickets in Block 3 row S offered (October 30th - 15:00). I thought that wasn't great so went for balcony tickets and there weren't any available at all!!!

Then went back for 5 on the floor and took 5 in Block 3 row X (24 rows back I presume).

I thought as ticketmaster was the official agent they would have a free run at the tickets. Even at 9:20 I could get tickets in Block 3 row V - so it looks like Blocks 1 and 2 and the first 18ish rows have been pre-sold somehow.

I'm fuming cause I was hoping to get better tickets - but there's not much you can do about these things.

ticket soup did the SECC no probs at all luckily!
