Welcome to our next outdoor "silent" film screening. By silent, we mean using headphones and car stereos for the broadcasting of the soundtrack, to avoid disturbing the local area.

The Film: Love Actually

Nine intertwined stories examine the complexities of the one emotion that connects us all: love. Among the characters explored are David (Hugh Grant), the handsome newly elected British prime minister who falls for a young junior staffer (Martine McCutcheon), Sarah (Laura Linney), a graphic designer whose devotion to her mentally ill brother complicates her love life, and Harry (Alan Rickman), a married man tempted by his attractive new secretary.

The Event Details

The film will start at approximately 21:00 and last for around 130 minutes. You can arrive any time from 20.30

DISCLAIMER: Due to changing circumstances relating to Covid-19 restrictions, we are placing these tickets on sale, but we may need to cancel the event at a later stage. If this happens we will issue refunds for all sales.

Given the work that is required to run and manage these events, we will only proceed with the evening if we sell 20+ tickets to the event. Anything you can do to encourage further ticket sales amongst friends etc, will encourage these events to happen. We will notify all ticket holders if an event is going to be cancelled by midnight 13.12.20 Refunds will be issued to anyone that has bought a ticket to an event that then doesn't go ahead.

Whilst this is a Drive In event we are keen for people to come by bike to this screening; we will ensure that any that do cycle get good positions and unrestricted views. Do be prepared for bad or cold weather though, as you'll be seating out in the open.

Each car will have its own parking space, that will allow for the required social distancing space between the edges of each vehicle, allowing the occupants to exit the vehicle if needed. The same spacing will be applied to anyone turning up on a cycle.

We're going to be using radio transmission sound technology to broadcast the soundtrack to your vehicle. You will be handed a sterilised audio receiver on arrival at the venue through your car window or to hand if you cycle. This can be plugged into your car stereo via an AUX cable with a 3.5mm (standard headphone socket) or can be used with regular headphones (NOT Apple lightening connector) and/or a headphone splitter to allow multiple headphones to be connected to a single unit. Alternatively it could be plugged into a portable speaker (in your vehicle).

We will supply the receiver and can supply a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable. We will NOT supply speaker, headphones nor a headphone splitter, these will need to be brought to the event by yourselves.

We'll have Sunshine Pizza in attendance again, please pre-order via https://sunshinepizzadelivery.co.uk. They will be on site from 17.30.

Here are some FAQs which cover the above and a few more bits and pieces to boot.

The eagle-eye among you may have spotted that we've upped our prices a little. This is partly to reflect the fact that we are looking at putting on some wider releases, but also as we are learning what works and what doesn't in the world of outdoor cinema. We would like to reassure you that this is not a trend that we aim to continue. We're fair folk trying to put on good value events at the same time as making a living in trying circumstances. Thanks.
