Cenwulf, I must say I am struggling here. Anyone got any ideas?

Oh, and SparkOut, I know just what you mean. When my kids were the age I think yours are all I used to see was kids' films. Endless flaming Disney rubbish! To be honest I don't go very often now because OH seems to prefer snoring on the sofa to going out!! Stupid, really, because in Berkhamsted (which is near me) there's a fabulous cinema with twirly seats, tables and a bar!! All art deco style too. I'm just too lazy to organise buying tickets for things a month in advance. http://www.therexberkhamsted.com/

I hope mine aren't too big. Somehow I doubt it. Do you need to book so far in advance?

We are on holiday from the 18th and it officially opens on 17th, (Kingsley is out partying that night) but there are some preview showings on 15th so I thought I'd get in on 15th. The cinema was half booked already when I booked.

Looking at it I thought it was red - but the 'coding' used (found by checking the Quote button) says Brown :(

I think I made this too hard. The answer I was looking for was:
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
(Chalie Drake or Charlie 'Bird' Parker; chocolate-coloured synonym for 'factory'.)

Here's a replacement:

OK - we'll give this a try.

I have something that can be added to the picture if the result is total confusion ;)
