Calum Best misses premiere of his own movie after failing to catch flight from Greece – but takes a HELICOPTER in desperate attempt to arrive on time
The reality star was forced to apologise to fans after embarrassingly failing to make the exclusive screening of his big screen project
PARTY-loving Calum Best missed the premiere of his own movie last night – after failing to catch a flight back from a holiday in Greece.
The reality star was forced to make an embarrassing apology to fans after failing to make it back in time for the exclusive screening of his new film, Dangerous Game, in London.
Calum, who plays a lead role in the upcoming flick, flew via helicopter in a desperate attempt to make his premiere in time – but ended up only arriving in time for the after party.
He shared his frustration on Instagram by revealing that Mykonos airport had claimed his flight was overbooked.
In a message posted last night Calum said: “So I’ve been on my holiday cruise.
“I planned it perfectly to leave the cruise early to travel back to London for the very important premiere of my new film Dangerous Game.
“Mykonos airport claimed my flight was overbooked so I went out of my way to book a helicopter to Athens being reassured we would make the next BA flight – arriving in Athens late I missed that flight too.
“Now I will arrive in the UK at 9pm with my premiere starting at 8!!!!!! I’m fuming.”
Calum went onto thank fans and attendees at the event for their support before finally arriving at the London venue in a suit.
He shared a follow-up snap on Instagram with the caption: “And we made it. Thanks to everyone who came and supported Dangerous Game.”

Earlier this week The Sun’s Bizarre column revealed that Calum had a secret fling with Love Island star Jessica Shears.
The glamour model, who romped Dominic Lever on screen this week, had intimate relations with Calum following his split from Playboy model Lindsey Pelas.
Viewers saw Jessica have sex under the covers with Dom just eight days after they met on the hit dating series.
A source said: “Calum thinks Jessica is a beautiful woman and a lot of fun.
“He’s supporting her during her time on the show and believes she will do well on it.
“They briefly dated after his split from Lindsey and had a really good time together.
“He’s a fan of the show and will be tuning in when he’s back from holiday.”
