 Everyone loves toilets. Without them, the streets (and our children) would be covered in crap. And there's nothing quite like rushing to the toilet in a London Film Festival cinema and relieving yourself just before a UK premiere. But how observant are you when you're doing your business? Now you can find out with the LFF Toilet Quiz.
What do you get as a prize? Well now, if you've been following film folks on Twitter over the past couple of weeks, you will have noticed a ridiculous number of tweets about the free chocolate offered to delegates by the BFI. But looking at endless pictures of other people eating chocolate sucks. So we're going to give you the chance to win three whole bars of Green & Black's for yourself - plus one mini-chocolate bar too.
Now according to Tesco, each individual bar costs around £2.06. So together, this mind-blowing chocolatey haul is collectively worth over £6.18. SIX POUNDS AND EIGHTEEN PENCE. That's a lot of chocolate (warning: no it isn't). To get your hands on the chocolate, all you have to do is name the five LFF cinemas from the pictures of water closets below...

(or @iFlicks) by midnight, Friday 28th October, and the person who identifies the most toilets wins the bounty. (Note: Bounty chocolate bars are not included in the prize.) |

After 2009's Capitalism: A Love Story and Rowan Joffe’s rubbish remake last year, 2011 could well be the one where we finally get a good surprise.
Here are our top London Film Festival Surprise Film predictions, starting with the most likely.
The one thing we can say for sure? At least it can’t be Brighton Rock again. |

You may have heard by now that Ralph Fiennes' adaptation of Shakespeare's Coriolanus boasts a stellar supporting role from one Channel 4 news presenter (cleverly taking on the Messenger lines in the play), a casting choice which prompted a major title change in my mind: Given this excellent use of the multi-coloured-tie-wearing broadcasting legend, which you can see for yourself tonight at the London Film Festival, here are some other newsreaders that we want to see tackle Shakespeare... |
