Guilt-Free Pleasure presents the sleek and sexy Cruel Intentions, for a 25th anniversary screening.

A modern retelling of Les Liaisons Dangereuses, Cruel Intentions follows step-siblings Kathryn, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Sebastian, Ryan Phillipe, as they sulk, seduce and manipulate everyone in sight.

Leeds Premiere of a new documentary covering anarchist art collective and punk band Crass on the history of the band and the release of their controversial Reality Asylum.

Celebratory, raw and shocking, this film is as close to the story of the anarcho-punk band as you’re going to get.

Crass were an art collective and punk band that formed in Essex in 1977, and disbanded in 1984. They promoted anarchism and a movement of resistance that awakened and appealed to many, inspiring many bands and artists ever since and seem to be more relevant now than ever.

Guilt-Free Pleasures presents one of the great rom-com duos Hudson and McConaughey, with their unrivalled comedic chemistry, beautiful faces and Andie’s great (really great) yellow dress.

In these free fortnightly sessions, you’ll get a chance to have a go at table tennis alongside other members of the LGBTQIA community and their allies.

Wether you’re a complete beginner or you’ve been playing for years, we welcome you to have a go in these sessions! This is a great chance to learn a new skill, whilst also getting to socialise with a wonderful and supportive community of people.

What to expect:

Table tennis, great conversations and lots of fun!

Hosted by Mrs Ossett, Charwoman at the Cardigan Arms, expect a night of traditional sing-a-long tunes, with some more ‘contemporary’ tunes thrown in for good measure. Musicians will support the rowdy and raucous singing, and a SURPRISE GUEST ACT will take you back to a time when a pint cost 11 pence. (No, the bar won’t be serving at 1940s prices).
