Inside I'm Dancing; Outside, I Can't Get Into The Bloody Cinema

News story of the week has to be about Claire Unwin, a wheelchair user from Carlisle, who was left feeling justifiably angry after she turned up at her local cinema to see a new film, only to discover that it had been moved to one of the venue's screens that doesn't have wheelchair access.

And what was the movie she wanted to see? Only Inside I'm Dancing - a film all about disability. Can't you just feel the hideous irony?

Of course, considering the dreadful reviews that most disabled people have given to this particular movie - featuring, as it does, non-disabled actors playing disabled characters - it could be argued that this particular cinema-goer had a lucky escape!
