Probably go unnoticed by most, but it's the most important issue to many - great to see the new BFI plans include cinema access: 'The Diversity funds will help promote equal access, participation and strengthening cultural diversity. It will also enhance access for people with sensory impairments and fund pilots for disabled people'.

A lot of people will appreciate that statement, and eventually benefit from much-improved access to films. To thousands of people with hearing loss, an accessible show - via subtitles - is the main reason they go to see a film. Not special effects, not Brad Pitt, not great stories, but the opportunity to simply follow the plot and enjoy the film!
