Signal Cinema LGBT film festival returns to NE England.

A CINEMA programme celebrating LGBT films launches in Barrow next week.

Signal Cinema returns on Thursday August 31, with a series of screenings and pop-up events taking place throughout the rest of the year.

Signal Pride! opens with the Bafta-winning comedy Pride, starring Bill Nighy and Imelda Staunton. This riotously funny and warm-hearted film tells the true story of the unlikely union between striking miners and gay activists in a Welsh mining town in 1984.
