The great and good of Farnham packed into the gleaming new REEL Cinema for a Champagne reception and the first full-length film screenings on Wednesday, January 31.
One screening, of George Clooney-directed The Boys in the Boat, began with a live Q&A with one of the stars of the film, Joel Phillimore.
Afterwards, the foyer buzzed with excitement at the return of the silver screen to Farnham after 39 long years away.
