The Film Programme - Cinema: open for business

With Antonia Quirke

As cinemas opened for the first time in 5 months, have concerns about the so-called Indian variant made people think twice about visiting their local picture palace ? Antonia takes a mini-tour of London cinemas and hears from Kevin Markwick, owner of the Uckfield Picture House, and from listeners who went to the flicks on opening day: Simon Barraclough, Ruby Phelan, Pamela Hutchinson and Michael O'Kelly.
