I was talking to a friend about my trip to Universal studios last year. My friend mentioned to me that Paramount Studios had little known walking tours of their working studios and that it was possible to see many of the stars at work on these tours. The tours sound great. I wish I had known about them last year.

Have readers done these walking tours? Experiences please?

cheers Peter

I've always enjoyed my visits to the Paramount lot. They have an excellent large theatre for special screenings, as do most of the studios.

I had the pleasure of spending a little time in the booth of Paramount's "big theater" last year. It was quite worth seeing.

And, to answer the obvious question:

3 Norelco AA-II's, with 4K Xetron Lamps, and Dolby Digital penthouse readers.
