The Film Programme

Inspired by stories of listeners staging their own site-specific screenings, Francine Stock tries to set up her own pop-up cinema. Along the way, Francine asks the help of various experts and societies about what you really need to organise a cinematic happening. But of course, what she needs most is a director who's willing to show their film and take part in the event. Will Ken Loach, the new patron of the British Federation Of Film Societies, be her knight in shining armour ?

Francine Stock looks ahead to Radio 4's Film Season, asking for listeners' diaries of their movie watching habits over January. The result will be a snapshot of the nation's viewing preferences - where we watch films (on television, computer or in the cinema) and on what format - DVD or download. Francine will try to find out if the digital revolution has finally arrived or is it just a media myth, and to discern what we are watching, whether its new releases or old favourites. Plus, Francine will be publishing a record of her own viewing habits via Twitter during the season.
