    Went to see the anniversary showing of original Dambuster film last night. Plus lots from Royal Albert Hall. Great night. Never seen it on the big screen before. Well worth it.

    As a look ahead Odeon are showing a film called Spitfire nationwide on July 17th.
    See you on the Dark Side......
