RAPPER Eminem's debut film, 8-mile, is the first big attraction at Lancaster's new Regal cinema this weekend.

The city's five months without a cinema of its own comes to an end when the former ABC re-opens under its new name.

As the Citizen revealed last week, the building has been taken over by Cumbria-based independent chain, Northern Morris Cinemas.

Work, including repainting and cleaning, has been going on all week to prepare the cinema for a busy opening weekend.
