Three city cinemas will welcome customers back after the industry was one of the worst hit sectors during the pandemic with many screens closed for extended periods or operating at reduced capacity.

The city centre Odeon Luxe on Arundel Gate, leads with Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway in which James Cordon again voices the lovable rogue who is back with Bea and Thomas, who have created a makeshift family.

It also has Nomadland, for which actress Frances McDormand and director Chloe Zhao won Oscars. McDormand plays a woman in her 60s who, after losing everything in the Great Recession, embarks on a journey through the American West, living as a van-dwelling modern-day nomad.
