00:00 Hi there, my name's John Blow, I'm from the Yorkshire Post Features team and I'm going to be taking you through some of the things coming up in the week ahead.
00:07 So first of all, Masterpieces and Modern Classics will be screened during a five-day cinema showcase in Bradford.
00:13 Pictorville Cinema will present its widescreen weekend, which is part of the National Science and Media Museum's calendar, although the museum itself is temporarily closed.
00:22 The Film Festival returns for its 27th edition on Thursday and will continue until Monday next week with a programme showcasing rare screenings, cinema restorations and more.
00:34 The line-up includes a special 70mm screening of Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight, which was shot in Ultra Panavision 70 for the first time in nearly 50 years and given a very limited release eight years ago.
00:49 Elsewhere, more industrial action will be taking place across various sectors this week.
00:53 Starting today, members of the University and College Union will strike for five consecutive days at universities across the UK in a dispute over pay and working conditions.
01:03 On the railways, the ASLEF Union has previously announced its members will strike on the coming Saturday.
01:11 And for the last time this year, there will be a supermoon overnight between Thursday and Friday.
01:16 It will be the Harvest Moon as it's the one closest to the autumn equinox, which is at the weekend.
