• Wassailing is a centuries-old British tradition for marking the New Year, where a group of people walk round their neighbourhood singing special songs called "wassails". Traditionally, the wassailing has two strands - going from door to door being welcomed in local houses, and blessing apple trees and beehives so that they are fruitful and productive in the coming year. There are old recipes for wassail drinks to go with these activities, and descriptions of "wassail cups" which are the vessels out of which these would have been drunk. These traditions still continue unbroken in some parts of Britain, such as Cornwall. In other areas, it has been revived more recently, and it is common for these celebrations to take place on, or close to, January 17th, the "old" New Year's Eve. http://www.thenagsheade17.com/ http://www.walthamstowfolk.co.uk/ or http://www.roseandcrowntheatrepub.webeden.co.uk/

Cert U

Based on a series of Dutch children's books by Hans der Beer, the animated feature The Little Polar Bear is a German production made up of three separate stories about polar bear cub Lars.

In the first, Lars meets and befriends a seal named Robby. In the second, he is stranded on an island and makes friends with a hippo, an eagle, and a killer whale. In the third, he and his friends plot to crash a ship that has been stealing all the fish out of the sea.

This film will enthrall young cinema goers with its delightful storyline, beautiful animation and positive environmental message. Youngsters will delight in this magical tale about a group of unlikely friends – a little polar bear, a seal pup, four maniacally depressed lemmings and some gullible seagulls, in the Arctic adventure of a lifetime.
