The Riverside Theatre in Woodbridge, 30 metres away from the railway station (London - Ipswich Lowestoft line) and a free evening car park, offers an annual season ticket for films for an amazing £70/year which reduces to just £65/year on renewal. It is a old cinema privately refurbished some 10 or so years ago with a good quality restaurant attached.

I normally use www.toptable.co.uk for discounted meals throughout the UK, which i doubt anyone else would be able to beat for value and book cinema tickets at VUE through www.lastminute.com for £4.75, which is practically buy one get one free at my local and is less than half price for the West End shows.

Is there anything else that is available for LONDON?
