When is the eclipse movie premiere in London?
There was a partial solar eclipse on 2008-Aug-01, but you probably didn't notice. The last total solar eclipse was 1715-May-03. King George I probably enjoyed the show. There are generally two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses each year. About half of those are partial. Total lunar eclipses seem to be more frequent, because it is visible from the entire dark side of the Earth, while solar eclipses cover a very narrow path across the Earth. The last total LUNAR eclipse in London (and western Europe and most of North America) was on February 21, 2008.

Meteor showers and eclipses happen, if not all the time, frequently: there are approximately two solar and two lunar eclipses per year, and there are meteor showers about once a month, though some of them are more prominent than others. They have essentially nothing to do with each other; your question implies that there's some connection, which is not the case, so I'm not sure what you were really trying to ask.
