    Based at St James Quarter I was quite excited to try this cinema. It has couches and arm chairs rather than standard seating. I use a powerchair so this was for my wife to have unique comfort. The lift to the screen was smooth that I didn’t feel it move and the accessible toilet has enough space for one doughnut. The wheelchair spaces within the screen are strange. There are two, one next to a chair that is a carers seat and one next to the other wheelchair space…in the middle of the floor. Oh and no carer seat for this space or even a table. This unfortunately was my spa. I felt completely disconnected from the group I was and honestly, I felt jn the way. People would stop and wonder why I was just sitting in the way. I felt so uncomfortable that I moved back toward a railing so I was out of the way. There is a drinks and food service to your chair but that was just more people to climb over me in the odd space in the middle of the floor.
