Dine Another Day: Win Tickets to the British Ball

It was as disappointing as the Britain's summer weather to have to tell you that tickets have already sold out for the British Ball. Your only hope for a ticket is now the waiting list – that's the official line from the British Ball committee.

But they didn't count on the fact that you know us. Here at the Beijinger, we are much like Her Majesty the Queen (and Commander Bond) in that we play by our own rules. We're not saying we are allowed to eat swan (we're not) but we do have a extra pair of tickets for the November 10th gala at the Kerry Hotel. Read on to find out how you can get your hands on this month's most sought-after tickets and sit at our table.

To win a brace of briefs to the British Ball, just answer this question: In which month of this year did TheBeijinger.com review Little Britain? (Hint: it's also the month that the Queen celebrated her official birthday in the UK.) Send your answers (plus your name, address and phone number) to win@thebeijinger.com. The competition closes at noon on Monday, November 5. Best of British, ladies and gentleman.
