Genuinely looking forward to this, I absolutely adore the first two films.

IHN, aged 50 and a fifth.

Agreed, I think they are brilliant! Can't watch the end of the second one without getting a watery eye - which the rest of the room now watch me instead of the film!

I’ve also enjoyed both films and hope the third is as good.

Paddington Bear has always been inherently subversive though. 🤣

Also can't wait for this. I think I prefer the second film, Hugh Grant so magnificently OTT

Is he still freaky looking?

He is a bear that talks...his looks really aren't the first thing that makes you think something is a bit odd...

You just made Mrs Bloke's day! I'm secretly pleased too.

I sometimes used to walk past them shooting Paddington 1 and then 2 a couple of years later in Primrose Hill, they built a newspaper stand in Chalcot Square and the house was on Chalcot Crescent, though with some CGI Victorian lanterns etc to make it look more period.

My eldest had to be escorted terrified and crying towards the end of #1 cos he was so frightened of Millicent Clyde. Can't believe he's just finishing GCSEs, doesn't time fly

Always the mark of a good children’s film.

Love Paddington!

Will miss Sally Hawkins though.
