Not really (on the last statement).... because the market wasn't open last night, so you couldn't sell anyway. If you put the order in then, it wouldn't go through until the market opened this morning, and I'm sure it opened at the corrected price.
There is such a thing as "after hours trading" - I have no idea if this is even possible on the London exchange... but even if it is, the price STILL would have been affected last night. As soon as there is news - on anything - a stock's price moves (in other words, good luck trying to find someone willing to BUY Party stock last night, when everyone knew it was going to tank this morning).....
Selling short Friday afternoon would have been a good idea though.
