    Yeah I heard that the shops that are attached to the current tesco like Carl Scarpa and the Butchers and Drycleaners and all are all getting moved in and upgraded and theres talk of a debenahms being another anchor but I dont know how true that is... and of course theres a cinema going in.... sure even if ya drive past it there's way too much construction going on for just a shopping centre.... big enough for a good size cinema... sure give it another few weeks and see if they put windows up :D

    There's been rumours of a cinema for the last 6 years I've been here, they claimed the same when Manor Mills was being built... So I'm skeptical. Though it would be great to finally get a cinema here.

    Edit : From looking at the plans, and searching the planning permissions, there doesn't seem to be any cinema in the works...

    The Community Council keeps blithering about how they've asked developers to build one, basically

    The Tesco development is not big enough for a modern cinema.

    Don't believe developers, don't believe politicians, don't believe builders, don't believe mates, you'll only be sure you have a cinema when it actually opens. The Whitewater Shopping Centre in Newbridge was supposed to have a multi screen cinema, it was one of the main reasons that the shopping centre got planning permission, but once construction was underway the developers tried to ditch the cinema and convert the cinema space into extra shopping space. Now the centre has been oven for 15 months and the space allocated to the cinema is still empty.

    Planning permission may include provision for a cinema, but the planners/council can't it seems actually force the developers to actually open it. So don't count your chickens just yet, but I hope you are lucky.
