If you've not already entered, then we'd urge you to look at the two competitions we're currently running. Competition One is in association with Thumbs Up UK Ltd, where we're offering a pair of
light up Transformers T-Shirts. The final hint for this competition is "look at the Top Trumps news". - which basically gives you the answer.
The second competition is "the big one", where Paramount Pictures UK are offering you the chance to win a pair of tickets (exact numbers of the pairs are still un-confirmed) to attend an
FDA Multimedia Screening of the Transformers Movie on Friday the 22nd of June. All you have to do is email us your names.
Winners of the Thumbs Up UK competition will be named on the site. Winners of the Paramount Pictures UK competition will be emailed and not named on the site (as entry to the screening is via a guest list).
Update: Just to clarify a couple of points regarding the Transformers Movie competition. Though no minimum age has been give to us from Paramount, you'll need to be over the age to view the film in the cinema so therefore we're putting a minimum age limit of 13 for applicants and guests.
We've been asked can you enter more than once. The simple answer is no, although you can be the named guess of up to five people. This is because we want to keep the competition fair and give everyone a chance to win some tickets.
