From what I can see you can pull up the film times in their accessible 
section, but you can't book online.

I can use their booking system perfectly well in Konqueror, which is a 
reasonably good sign.

Anyhow, it might be a good opportunity for a press release & open letter 
congratulating them on the accessible web site, and the relatively standards 
compliant main web site (given that Konqi can load it), and encouraging them 
to go further to make their entire web site fully web standards compliant (if 
it isn't already -- it does use javascript in pointless ways, but anyway this 
needs checking), as well as offering accessible web booking (if this is 
possible?)
