Oh dear - I'm of the lazy mum school of parenting. I'm off to Greenwich Picture House for the baby - friendly 'big scream' movie. This week it's Helen Mirren and James McEvoy in a film about Tolstoy's life and legacy.


I'll probably fall asleep after 10 minutes after the night I've had.


Starts at 11.30am.

Snowboarder - me too! The last few films we've tried to see with toddler I've spent most of the time either:


- apologising to our neighbours as she climbs over their laps

- running up and down the stairs, hunched over like Quasimodo, after her

- likewise with the big, as she sees it - running track, just in front of the screen

- or playing with the automatic doors into the car park (after I've totally given up!)


Does anyone know what age they actually start behaving and watching the film? I've seen the first 10 mins of so many films now!


ClareC - Greenwich, Brixton and, I think, CLapham all do 'Big Scream' films. It costs a pound to become a member, then you can go until your child is 1 year old. Just double check my info when you get a chance as the site is down at the mo, so I can't double check myself.

But there's a film every Wed at 11.30 and they have a good range between the popular blockbusters and more high brow stuff.


It's hiilarious going there - women with their boobs out bfing and babes crawling everywhere. Totally chaotic, but very friendly and welcoming. I've seen the odd chap there too - but they kept a very low profile and sat very low in their seats ;-)

My kids have been able to manage short animated films from about age three onwards. Test them out at home with a film first though!! I'm just waiting for my littlest one to 'come of age' then we can all go to the cinema on a rainy saturday afternoon...not that we get many of those in this country....

    • ok - Jeremy himself is against mandatory vaccines. Is he as extreme as his brother? No? Is it fair to discuss how the overall view of that family would inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic? I would argue very much so    
    • I wonder how much the rebranding is costing in total?  Could the money be used in a better way ? 
    • It's not fair to hold Corbyn's brother's views against him when he has never explicitly or implicitly endorsed them. And he has enough of his own terrible positions to criticise anyway.
    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead? Sorry Alice but we'll have to disagree on this one. This does not sound like kids just being silly; lobbing water bombs at each other is one thing, but targeting complete strangers out for a walk and minding their own business and trying to kick their dog is, in my view, no laughing matter. A group of 15 teenagers can be intimidating, not to everyone but for some it can be, especially if their behaviour is aggressive.
