Visited this cinema a bunch of times around mid to late 90’s whilst under Virgin ownership. If I recall they offered a monthly pass for £20 which entitled you to unlimited movies.

Screen 5: Superscreen looks a decent sized auditorium with 390 (+ disabled) seats. Anyone know the screen dimensions?
The rest of the auditoriums all look rather small.
Announced for closure on 10 December 2024 as a consequence of their financial troubles.
No closure date given.
It has now been announced that Odeon will take over this site in 2025.
