I've offer wondered if I dreamt The Wind in the Willows film that I saw, as I only watched it that one time, and I have never heard anybody else talk about it.

But I've just tracked it down. It was a 1996 version, with Steve Coogan as Mole.

Anything with Hayley Mills or Cliff Richard.
But then I'm so old we had to dodge the mammoths on the way to the cinema.

The first one for me was Beauty and the Beast. We didn't have a TV so it was mind-blowing for me! I think I was 4 or 5. I also remember we went to see Babe, 101 dalmatians, Beethoven 2, Pocahontas, Paws and Stuart Little.

I’m 70 so lots from Disney, anything with Cliff Richard, Elvis Presley, Hayley Mills. Mary Poppins, Jason and the Argonauts. My Mum’s big love however was John Wayne so I also saw lots of his films.

The super Saturday club, that's when parents dumped the kids for couple of hours 10p admission to cinema with your membership card.
