    T-Mobile and Orange are 'as one' now, so I think T-Mobile get Orange Wednesday, might be wrong mind

    As for cinema prices - just paid £28 for tickets to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. It is for two people, including 3D glasses, on an IMAX screen, so I do feel it is justified. But I rarely bother with the cinema now, as it is simply easier to download a film at home. Not entirely comfortable with doing that, but I'm sick of mouthbreathers ruining the cinema experience. Last time I complained in the Odeon in Newcastle about a group of girls talking all the way through, I got told from the 'manager' that they weren't gonna move the girls because they were a group! I still don't get the logic.

    yes they're as 1 but would t mobile be able to get orange wednesdays im not sure

    T-Mobile users don't get Orange Wednesdays - I checked when I was looking at one of their contracts.

    Mind you, they also strenuously denied that they were part of Orange and instead were just using Orange's network - which may or may not be true.

    My husband and I rarely go to the cinema now, it's way to expensive (doesn't help that hubby forgets he has a student card!). There is so many silly charges as well - online booking fee, extra £1 for a late showing or a over 18s only showing, 3d glasses also cost a fortune.

    keep the 3d glasses and it wont cost as much next time, i think cineowlrd is £1.50 if you have the glasses
  • £35 2 x adults 1 x child 1 x student to watch Harry Potter ( fortunately got 3d glasses would be an extra £3.20!) To pay this amount going to the cinema has to a luxury really. Shame because it is a nice way to spend family time.
