Spinal Tap II: The End Continues
Ferring Community Cinema, Worthing
Ferring Community Cinema will be showing their next film, ‘Spinal Tap II: The End Continues’ on Friday 12th June.
Legendary faux rockers, Spinal Tap, return in this comedy 'mockusequel' about the band’s contractually enforced, and horribly ill-fated one-off reunion gig in New Orleans. It’s their first time playing together in 15 years, since a mysterious reported row between David and Nigel brought the Tap bandwagon to a halt.
The band members have established other careers, all a long way from their rock band days, and do not relish the idea of being forced into this final reunion gig.
With an impressive cast that includes Christoper Guest, Michael McKean, Harry Shearer, Rob Reiner, and Kerry Godliman – and Elton John and Paul McCartney in what must be smallish parts! – this film looks like it will be fun.
The film will be showing at Ferring Village Hall. Tickets are £6 and available at the North Ferring Co-Op, the Premier Stores in South Ferring, and on the door on the night. Ticket price includes tea, coffee or a soft drink, and biscuits. Doors open at 6.30pm for a prompt 7pm start.
Ferring Community Cinema is a not-for-profit organisation with profits donated to Ferring Village Hall and other national charities.

History People Guided Walk - Saints & Sinners
Chris Hare, Worthing
WORTHING HERITAGE FESTIVAL. West Tarring includes the only truly ancient street in the borough of Worthing. Tarring High Street includes both medieval and Tudor-era buildings. This wonderful street was nearly lost to a road widening scheme in the late 1920s, so we are very fortunate to still enjoy it today. Two saints are associated with West Tarring, one a bishop and one an archbishop. The village history has plenty of sinners as well, including a smuggling magistrate and a murdering churchwarden. Due to narrow streets this walk in limited to 25 people, so please book early to avoid disappointment. Those joining the walk will be given a photocopy of a Victorian map of the village to keep.
General Admission@ £9

Our talk this month is by Jacky Klein. Many of us find contemporary art challenging, strange, provocative or downright silly.

Doors open 9.30am. Everyone welcome. Guests £7 on the door. Coffee & biscuits available. Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month. For more information, please email [email protected]
