Many people took to Twitter to share the trouble they had experienced.

Josh Coles said: 'Why are all the Norwich advanced sales closed/unavailable? #StarWarsTheLastJedi'

While @SJRAnimations tweeted: 'Norwich Odeon tickets have been down for ages.'

A spokesperson for Odeon responded to both tweets saying that they were 'working on a tech issue for Norwich'.

The problem now appears to have been resolved.

Releasing on December 14, Star Wars: The Last Jedi is the eighth film in the popular Sci-Fi franchise and stars Mark Hamill, Daisy Ridley and Carrie Fisher.
