To get a discount you will nead a cea card. To get one just google cea card to download the form its around £5 for a year.

If you feel the cold, wear layers or do as i do and take a blanket.

There is a bar, and if you are in the directors screen you can take your alcoholic drinks with you.

Theres a pub/reasturant/childs play area across the road, about a 100 yards from the cinema. Its good, cheap food.
