Magnum Film Centre

The

cinema opened (along with the rest of the centre) on

September 18, 1976. Originally it showed only arthouse films

thanks to a tie-in with the GFT, but this was not a financial

success. The last film shown there was "The Hulk" on Sunday 17th

August 2003. Films are no longer shown, although the cinema can still

be hired

for private viewings, and the auditorium is regularly used as a

theatre. Seating was 323 on opening, now 311 to give space for

wheelchair users.
