Not a man to be seen as Sex And The City mania strikes Britain
If there ever was a time for men to avoid the cinema, this weekend is it.
The Sex And The City film had its UK release last night with many cinemas full to the brim of extremely excited women - and hardly a man to be seen.
Such is the frenzied excitement surrounding the popular TV show’s celluloid offering that cinemas across the UK are booked up for weeks.

Every screening of the highly-anticipated film is expected to be sold out across the weekend.
Those lucky enough to see the comedy on its release were raving about it this morning.
One said: 'Ten out of 10. They managed to make a film which not only lived up to, but possibly exceeded, all the hype. It was funnier than expected, too.'

Fan Tracey Blake attended a screening at the Curzon cinema on Chelsea’s King’s Road last night.
She said: 'The foyer was jam-packed, it must have been a sell-out.'
And she said it was even better than she’d hoped. 'It was brilliant, funny, sad, happy. Samantha has some great oneliners and I actually thought it was funnier than the series. All the women looked incredible and the audience was clapping and cheering at the end.'
An Odeon spokesman said 17,000 viewers saw Sex And The City at the chain’s cinemas yesterday in London alone.
He added: 'There are still some tickets available but they are selling very fast. We’d advise people to book as soon as possible as they will soon sell out.'
