Film Night @ Queen St Church

Whittlesey Cinema Experience – Final Screening for this year!
at Queen St Church

Sat. 7th December at 7pm
(doors open at 6.30pm)

 “A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong” – cert 12A
plus Special Christmas Special


Stars Derek Jacobi and Diana Rigg

 

Following their disastrous production of “Peter Pan”, the Cornley Polytechnic amateur dramatic society have been banned from participating in this year’s “A Christmas Carol” with Sir Derek Jacobi. However, the enthusiastic amateurs, undeterred, nobble Sir Derek and the other cast members to stage their own version. There is dissent in the company when Chris and Robert both want to play Scrooge, while nervous Dennis , as Bob Cratchit, has to read all of his lines off prop and Annie gets glued to her chair. When Lucy’s (Ellie Morris’) Tiny Tim is knocked out by falling scenery, the hulking Robert rather improbably must replace her. With faulty greenscreen special effects, and a seemingly romantic betrayal exposed, the company’s version seems doomed until Sandra’s Aunt Diana comes to the rescue.

 Free admission, donations welcomed to offset operating expenses.

Refreshments served at interval – ALL very welcome!!

Missing Lady – Keep A Look Out Please

Dear Roy,

We need your help to find a woman who has gone missing from her home in Fenland.

Lorraine Hiam, 68, was last seen getting into a taxi from her home in Church Road, Christchurch, at about 3.30pm on Wednesday (27 November).

She is described as white, 5’ tall, medium build and wears a short blonde wig. She was last seen wearing a long blue coat and carrying a bag with a Christmas design on it which had a tent and sleeping bag in it.

We have been carrying out numerous enquiries however we now have limited information which we can follow up, therefore we are asking for the public’s help to report any possible sightings of Lorraine.

At the moment we have been unable to trace where she got a taxi to, however we believe she may have gone to a bus station and travelled to the Norfolk area, possibly Lowestoft.

Anyone who has seen Lorraine since Wednesday or who has information concerning her whereabouts should call 101 quoting incident 235 of 28 November or use our online webchat service

(Ben Campbell is a young, highly intelligent student at M.I.T. in Boston who strives to succeed. Wanting a scholarship to transfer to Harvard School of Medicine with the desire to become a doctor, Ben learns that he cannot afford the $300,000 for the four to five years of schooling as he comes from a poor, working-class background. But one evening, Ben is introduced by his unorthodox math professor Micky Rosa into a small but secretive club of five students, Jill, Choi, Kianna, and Fisher, who are being trained by Professor Rosa in the skill of card counting at blackjack. Intrigued by the desire to make money, Ben joins his new friends on secret weekend trips to Las Vegas where, using their skills of code talk and hand signals, they have Ben make hundreds of thousands of dollars in winning blackjack at casino after casino. Ben only wants to make enough money for the tuition to Harvard and then back out. But as fellow card counter Jill Taylor predicts, Ben becomes corrupted by greed and his arrogance at winning which lets his feelings get in the way, and it also puts Professor Rosa, as well as the group, on the radar of a brutal casino security enforcer named Cole Williams, who holds a personal grudge of some kind against Rosa which threatens to undo everything the students have learned and earned.)
