75 years ago, are there any plans to do something at Derwent this year?

Not sure about what is planned for Derwent, but they are showing the film nationwide on the 17th (one night only) not sure how many cinemas after its restoration in 4K. I saw the folks at the launch outside the Royal Albert Hall just before the snow started a fortnight ago.

The screening at the RAH will be on a 40ft screen

Yes, just up the road in Galashiels. What is 4K? Another one of these viewing formats I don't understand.

4k is UHD. I think it is 4 times the quality of the standard full HD which is 1080p.
