The spectrum film club

As you all know the monthly film club has been running for a number of years but unfortunately in recent times our numbers have been on the decrease. We have tried numerous incentives to try and increase the audience numbers but have not been very successful.  

With the lack of audience, the film and venue costs and also after a long hard few months of deliberation it has been decided that the film club’s last ever showing will be Tuesday 16 December. This will be a celebration of the Spectrum Film Club and as it is Christmas we will have some celebratory Xmas goodies.  

Please feel free to bring along family and friends to our ‘end of an era’ celebration, and as it Christmas feel free to wear anything festive.
We would like to thank everyone for all their hard work in making the film club what it is today, special thanks to our spokesperson Ed who has done an amazing job of introducing each film to us – we couldn’t have done it without you! Also to Jamie for his film introductions and to David & Louise Simmons for their tuck shop contributions – and of course to everyone who regularly attends.

We are currently in negotiations with Kirky Cinema around an ASN film screening in 2026 from their venue in the Kirkintilloch Town Hall and hope to have some dates for this later in the year but looking potentially like a Saturday in February 2026.  

If anyone would like to discuss alternate groups or activities across East Dunbartonshire, then please contact the lacs@eastdunbarton.gov.uk who will be only to happy to support you with finding out this information.

Movie blurb: 'A young boy who has grown sceptical of Santa Claus is shocked to see a train stop outside his window on Christmas Eve, destined for the North Pole. When he accepts an invitation from the conductor to climb on board, he embarks on a white-knuckle ride to Santa's headquarters, where he makes fast friends and learns an invaluable lesson about the true spirit of Christmas’.
