Actually they are shooting in the UK at Leavesden studios, not Pinewood.
Leavesden is a converted Rolls Royce factory that was used to shoot
Goldeneye. Supposedly the first day of 'principal' photography is set to
occur at any moment in Naples, Italy at the Caserta Palace. Lucas is
holding a press conference there tomorrow with the entire cast of the
new films. Watch CNN, ET, etc. and you may catch some of it. Preliminary
photography has been under way since June 26. Oh and yes that casting
notice for extras was real. Send in your headshots.

You got it backwards! The boy was supposed to be younger than the girl.
I think they wanted girls aged 10-12, but since this was cirrculated in
1996 that would mean that she could potentially be 15 by the time
filming is over + however long she ages (Natalie Portman eventually got
this role) between episode 1 and 2 so it makes a little more sense if
you look at it that way. Still a bit perverted maybe :)
may the force be with you...
