A Turtle’s Tale - The Great Escape (U)
This second instalment of the adventures of Sammy the turtle sees Sammy and his turtle friend Ray, swooped up by poachers who ship them off to Dubai where they become part of a spectacular aquarium show for tourists.
Big D the seahorse enlists the turtles in his plans for a great escape, but Sammy and Ray have other ideas.
The pair team up with new pals Jimbo the bug-eyed blob fish, Lulu the snippy lobster, Annabel the sweet octopus and a whole family of penguins as they form a break-out plan of their own.
Then little Ricky and Ella arrive, determined to rescue them, sparking a chain of narrow escapes and thrilling adventures before Sammy can head south to meet up with his one true love, Shelly.

Song for Marion (PG)
Terence Stamp plays Arthur, a grumpy old man who is reluctantly inspired by his wife Marion (Vanessa Redgrave) to join her unconventional choir.
Alienated from his son, James, (Christopher Eccleston) Arthur forms a bond with the choir director Elizabeth (Gemma Arterton) and starts to tap his feet to the beat.
Struggling to cope with Marion’s terminal illness, Arthur agrees to join the seniors choir to keep his wife happy, but finds it hard to tackle modern classics such as Let’s Talk About Sex.
Written and directed by Paul Andrew Williams, the movie centres on Arthur’s discomfort in embracing change as his wife forces him to try something new before she dies.
Amusing and life affirming with a great central performance from Terence Stamp.
