Dear Age of Stupid Supporters,

We're nearly there.

Right now, there are over 15,000 posters across London, we've handed out 50,000 fliers, written to over 600 local groups, made over 500 telephone calls, organised 122 speakers across the country from over 100 separate organisations and have been on/in nearly every single national media outlet. Not bad going for an advertising budget of £3k!

So, what's the upshot?

SOLD-OUT: Bath, The Eden Project, Exeter, Leeds Light, Liverpool, Fincley Road, Islington, Empire - Leicester Square, Prince Charles - Leicester Square, Solar Tent, Shepards Bush, Maidenhead, Norwich, Oxford

LOOKING GOOD: Aberdeen, Lincoln, Acton, Newcastle - Star City, Edinburgh Ocean, Harrow, Inverness, Portsmouth, Romford, Greenwich, Guilford, Kingston, Tunbridge Wells, Wimbledon, Birmingham, Bristol Longwell, Cambridge, Enniskillen, Exeter, Glasgow (GFT), Manchester, Milford Haven, Naul, Co.Dublin, Newry Film Club, Plymouth, Reading

NEED PUSHING: Wigan, Hatfield, Swindon, Blackburn, Bury, Carlisle, York, Watford, Staines, Cheshire Oaks, Croydon Purley Way, Leeds Kirkstall, Leicester, Livingston, Newcastle-Under-Lime, Preston, Scunthorpe, Southport, Braehead, Hatfield, Cardiff, Tyneside, Portaoise, Co. Laois, Romford, Swindon, Tinahely, Co. Wicklow. Help!

Our last request to you? Please make one last push to get people along to the sites that aren't sold out. Send that text, make the phone call, talk to your long lost friend and get them to come along. It could make all of the difference in the world (sold out sites are already re-booking the film).

Thanks for all of your fantastic support in the run-up to this record breaking event! Having just seen the satellite broadcast rehearsal, I can tell you it's going to be unforgettable...

With so much gratitude,
From everyone at Team Stupid
