Not just Odeon, but all chains but Odeon are pausing Limitless payments until further notice. If a payment has just gone out, it will be reimbursed.

Well that's that then for previews and new films for the foreseeable.

This website is more than just films so you can always just come here to chat about anything.
These are exceptional times, and we will need each other to get through, for our mental health if nothing else.

STAY SAFE EVERYONE

How true! I have been following the conversations with interest in this forum. It helps to overcome the sense of isolation.

And the last thing we need is tumbleweed scenes on here where there's no chats for days. When all the toilet paper is b*ght we can blether on here. :-)

Just heard one of my favourite elderly aunts has died of a heart attack. Even sadder is that being in the high risk category I won't be able to go to her funeral.
This will happen now in a lot of families who will be unable to p*y their last respects to family members and friends.

Oh, biggins, I'm so sorry to hear this news. As you know, it's necessary to take care of yourself at this time and you can take some time at home to say goodbye to her, perhaps at the same time as the funeral. May she rest in peace. Take care x

For some bizarre reason I cannot copy the Picturehouse email I just got but they state that all memberships will be prolonged by however long the closure lasts.
