Scottish city centre to get first cinema in 25 years
A city centre cinema has been talked about for years, with the closure of the Robins back in 2000 leaving a hole in the cultural scene.
The Dunfermline Regeneration Trust has been making efforts to bring the big screen back, partnering with OnFife to make the seasonal arrangement a reality.

Project lead Derek Glen said: 'We know people in Dunfermline have been crying out for a city centre cinema for years, now we've made it happen, but if folk really want it to last, they need to back it by turning up.'
The cinema will feature its own tuck shop, selling drinks, popcorn, sweets and ice cream, so movie-goers can enjoy 'the full cinema experience'.
A statement continued: 'Whether you're after a low-cost family outing, a nostalgic night out, or just a good excuse for popcorn, Peacock Cinema is here, and it's ready to roll.'
On Sunday Muppets Most Wanted will be shown at 11am, before Alfred Hitchcock's romantic thriller To Catch a Thief at 1pm.
Tickets can be found by visiting the OnFife website, or purchased on the door.
