chicken & egg situation, hardly likely to start b*ying them when they don't include the area in their offers :p

It really genuinely was more of a question, I don't know if they are popular in Sheffield? :confused:

never been to Sheffield?
it's a big city with lots of posh people living in one half (ie. like Nick Clegg) so what do you think? the papers are as popular as anywhere else I would guess.


edit: Sheffield was also the largest city in England not to have any riots :p

I've been there once and I loved it. I did say before I think it's the 4th biggest city in the UK?

Edit: I was going to say londoners might have more screenings, but we also have more of the rioters and looters!

I think Yinster has the Batman Begins one wrong. I think the number is 9 which makes the letter I and I'm pretty sure I know where this is going.
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.
