| Many thanks to all of you who have already joined as members for our new season which commences in October. If you haven't become a member yet, please do consider joining. We have received a number of requests for the membership forms to be sent out again, and a copy is attached to this email. Alternatively, the new forms may be downloaded by clicking here. Once you have filled in the form, just pop it in the post, together with your cheque made out to Biggar Little Cinema, to Stewart Houston, 21 Rowhead Terrace, Biggar ML12 6DU. The Easiest Way to Join - send us an email by clicking here and filling in your name and address details. You can also pay electronically - full details are given below. Paying Electronically - we have also had enquiries about paying for membership by transferring the fee electronically rather than sending a cheque by post. We are very pleased to receive payments by BACS or by home banking via the internet. The bank details you will need are as follows: Bank: Royal Bank of Scotland, 104 High Street, Biggar ML12 6DH Sort Code: 83-16-11 Account No 00622143 Account Name: Biggar Little Cinema Please don’t forget to give a reference to the payment so that we can identify that you've paid! If you do pay electronically, and have not sent us an email as above, please don’t forget to send your membership form to Stewart Houston, showing your choice of first or second screening for the season. We offer a choice of membership - either for the first screening or the second. Membership is available for £30, a saving of £6 on the ticket price for the six films. There is one form for the first screening of each film and one for the second. Please choose which you would prefer, print out the form and fill in the appropriate section. If the application is for more than one person, please add the other name(s). The more members we have, the less we pay in film licence fees, which is particularly important since all our surplus goes to local organisations and Rotary charities. Your memberships for our 2011/12 season, together with ticket sales, have already enabled us to raise £5,270 - so you can see that we value your continued support. Why membership is important to us Some members have asked us about the way we are charged licence fees by the film distributors. Just to remind you why we need to have memberships: the type of licence we use to screen films means that we are charged, for each showing, a basic licence fee or a 35% charge on our total box office drawings for each film, whichever is the greater. If we have a membership effectively paying in advance, then that number is not counted as part of the box office drawings, and we only have to pay the basic licence fee. This of course means that in the end we maximise the proceeds available for donation. Membership Enquiries If you have any questions about membership, please call

Our 2012/13 Season
We have another excellent line-up for our new season which commences in October - from a quintessential British comedy to an American drama, from an Aardman animation to a charming Martin Scorcese adventure, from a black & white 1920s drama to the latest James Bond movie ..... Something for everyone? We hope so. Two of our films – The Artist and Hugo – each won five Oscars this year! Click on the button below each film to read more about them.

About Us
Biggar Little Cinema was founded in February 2011, and is run as a community cinema on a non-profit basis.
As a not-for-profit organisation, our aim is to disburse all the surplus from our screenings as charitable donations, to local organisations and Rotary projects.
We also aim to provide the opportunity for members of an isolated rural community to enjoy good films without having to make a round trip of 60 miles or more to the commercial cinema.
Our films are shown in high-resolution digital quality, and projected using the latest digital equipment on to a full-size cinema screen. To match the exceptional quality of our picture, our sound is Dolby stereo using high definition loudspeakers. The Corn Exchange is well-known as an excellent venue, with very comfortable cinema-style seating and a cosy atmosphere. A full bar is available both before and after each screening, with a lounge area for relaxing and chatting with friends. All in all, Biggar Little Cinema offers a perfect location - and all proceeds go to support local organisations and Rotary projects.
Thank you again for your support!
