After long months of planning, followed by licensing hassles a-plenty and then much more planning, the Church is – at last! – proud to present Longniddry’s very own cinema club.

As well as being lots of fun, cinema offers an avenue into spiritual, ethical and social issues. In our first season we will aim to present a varied selection of films, a number of which we know will be challenging in one way or another. (You have been warned.)

Fed up of long drives to the cinema, and overpriced Maltesers? Then join the club, enjoy our reasonably big screen, and bring your own sweeties.

To sign up, come to church any Sunday, or have a chat with movie supremo John Thomson (852748).

Would you believe we’re not actually allowed to tell you about them (it's all down to those licensing rules!). What we can say is that the Film Club have put together a fabulous programme of interesting, thought-provoking films.Once you have registered as a member, you'll get to know the full details of each film. What more can we say, except: “Join the club and see for yourself.”

On the verge of being deported and losing her high-powered job, the controlling Margaret announces she’s engaged to her unsuspecting, put-upon assistant Andrew. After proposing a few demands of his own, the mismatched couple heads to Alaska, where they have four short days to convince his quirky family.......
