Yes, yes I know we're still in Bradford but this is another little pearler that deserves much kudos. It's a fantastic cinema and is a joy to visit. To start with it has a bar. I mean a proper bar here, not your multi-plex excuse of a bar. You can get nice wine, good beer and excellent hot drinks. They'll even serve them up in plastic vessels so you can take them into the show. As for the cinema itself, it's a joy. Simple as that. The seats are all planned to give every viewer a great angle and to maximise your viewing experience. The actual screen has great visual quality and the sound system is also a good draw. For me it's the film choices that really put it hands above many other places in West Yorkshire . You'll be able to see all the Indie films that don't make it across the main stream cinemas and you'll also have a choice of foreign films as well as some of the bigger players. Then you've got the various film festivals that bring in directors, premieres and some of the finest animation available. It's film Jim but not as we know it. Do yourself a favour and check out some delightful films that may otherwise creep under your radar. Immense cinema, that's all you need to know.

Screen is incredably small compared to the ones in bradford and leeds so I wouldn't go and see a blockbuster there but it's fine for seeing a comedy or kids flick. Also the entry price is so much cheaper than the multiplex's and parking is free if you go to the BaltiChef carpark after 6pm.

Okay, head out of the…read moreclouds now but I tell you we have another little gem of a cinema and that is the Cubby Broccoli. Named in memory of Cubby Broccoli, the producer of the James Bond films, this cinema complements the Pictureville Cinema and provides depth to many of the film seasons. Oh and do they have film seasons and festivals ahoy. We're talking Bite the Mango Festival, focusing on South Asia, Africa, East Asia, the Middle East and South America, as well as films made by black and Asian filmmakers in Europe and America. We're also talking animation of the highest order. We're also talking some of the best in Bollywood. It's a cultural combination of pleasure and film feasting. The cinema itself homes 100 seats and is a truely great cinematic experience. It's so refreshing to get away from those somewhat soul sapping multi-plex affairs and chill out here. The national Media Museum definitely know their film and they also know their cinemas too. Check out one of the many Indie films and enjoy some critic lovers' film watching. That's a wrap and an excellent one at that.

Well we also need to mention the inbetween and mass market too. Maybe not as much but here we go, it's the Showcase. When the Showcase opened many years ago now it was well ahead of anything else in the area. It brought mulit-screens to Leeds and all under one roof. However, that was back in the day and when you could buy half penny sweets and munch on flying saucers. Okay it's not that old but it has certainly fallen a bit behind some of the competitors in the area. That said it's not a bad cinema. You'll still get a good choice of big films and reasonable auditoriums but it lacks to punch of some of it's rivals. I find the films tend to be slightly behind the Vue ones and some of the screening areas aren't as big either. The staff are friendly but slightly unhelpful and the savoury snacks are expensive and utter dross. On the plus side, it's free parking and there is plenty of it. You've also got many eateries on site for a quick feed before or after the performance. Not one to avoid but not a place to hurry to either.

If you want to see a film at the cinema and live close, then here is as good a place as any. It does have a lot of parking space, and it's not bad for buses either. It's close to a major bus route out of Bradford. But then again, so is the cinema that is actually IN Bradford city centre. It's a very bland place to review. No very negative qualities, but nothing that makes it stand out either. Except perhaps the aroma of chlorine from the swimming pool next door.

Now the reason I've held back from unleashing this baby before is because it's in Bradford . Not that there is anything wrong with Bradford but I'm a Leeds lover. This however needs to be visited. How many places in Yorkshire can actually stick the world National in their title? Exactly, that's why we need to spread the word. To begin with it's a bargain. All you pay is a donation that you feel happy with. Win, win! Don't be cheap now; you know it's worth it if Cheryl Cole is. Then it's time to explore. It's a celebration of most things television, film and photography. You'll find several floors exploring each genre and it's hands-on fun for kids and big kids alike. By far the best bit is reading the news and playing with the cameras and auto cues. You may disagree with that if you love your Thunderbirds and the like though with exhibits and various shows to watch. The photography is diverse and the exhibitions change every few months or so. Don't miss out the interactive exploring zone either and even have a peak at some Radio Leeds people doing their thing, as one of their remote studios is housed in the building. Don't be put off; this is a top quality museum and one that should be explored.

Very fine media museum, Bradford's No.1 tourist attraction…read more This modern museum devoted to photography and broadcasting is just 5-7 minutes from the central station, and it should be your No.1 stop when you're visiting Bradford. Each floor is dedicated to a different form of media or media content, and I do recommend you start in the basement, which is the Kodak history of photography exhibit. It's easily the most impressive part of the museum. There's a plethora of historic cameras, with tons of information on the technological development of photography from metal plates to modern digital cameras. It's all lovingly presented, and there's a special presentation for the small fry several times a day. Another floor deals with the history of radio and television, again supported with a large number of historic TV cameras and radio transmitters. All very well done. The top floor is dedicated to media content, namely exhibits from some of Britain's most popular TV programs, from Dr. Who and the Daleks to Wallace and Gromit (including the only surviving miniature set from the original short films - the studio was destroyed in a fire some years ago). There are even some puppets from Gerry Anderson's 1960s animated sci-fi shows (like Captain Scarlet). Some illustrations from Tom & Jerry and other animated films will inform you about how this kind of shorts/films was made in "the old days". A temporary exhibition during my visit was a sparse but intriguing collection of items from the films of French avantgarde artist Jean Cocteau.

The venue is opposite the bus station, an old office building. The venue works really well with a grungy run down feel, it feels as though you are going to some secret place. Upstairs the bar is small but well equipped with beers/wine, pop corn, buns and a tasty dal that I tried. The prices are cheap and affordable. The cinema is smaller than your average but has a friendly feel with blankets, really good sound and visibility. Movie choice is good with new films on Fridays and more arty choices on Sunday's. At the end of the showing the old office has a great atmosphere with drinks, candles and a view over the town. Overall I love this place and concept!
