And, just to be clear ATTENDED not Paid for attendance.

 Don't encourage him, in his part of the special hospital where he
resides, nobody paid anything for cinema tickets and nobody attended the showings. It was all a big PR stunt by the BBC.

 You are hallucinating your own fantasies and can't distinguish them
from reality.
 Officially not one single person needed to go to watch Doctor Who in
the cinemas, since the theatre rooms were booked by the BBC in
advance for a fixed fee. The BBC can claim that the rooms were all
full if it likes, and that is what it has done, even if they were all
empty, since they've already paid for all the seats. This is what is
known as a scam and a lie. Anyone can hire a venue and claim they
filled it even if nobody attended the event the venue was booked
for.
 It doesn't matter how many tickets the BBC sold, the rooms sill count
as full houses even if they're completely empty, just like a night
club counts as a full house even if it's empty because it has to pay
royalties to the PRS/PPL/MCPS for all music played as if it had a
full house. Those are the figures the BBC are declaring. Lies based
on numbers that they have to pay actors money for royalties and
residuals.
 The reality is that all but a tiny number of the seats were occupied.
 Let the BBC prove otherwise.

Seems to ME, Aggy, that YOU are the one making claims (not the BBC) so
it is up to you to *PROVE* you claims!!
IMHO, of course!!
