Re: They Shall Not Grow Old - In Cinemas 16 October 2018

This looks fantastic Phil. I’d LOVE to go to it, but unfortunately I”m in the US and I’ve googled to see if I can find if it’s showing here......and of course it is not.....I hope after it’s one night showing, it becomes available again somehow?

Cheers
