75 years of classic Ealing Comedy...

Ealing comedies are renowned for their quintessential humour, outlandish plots and impressive ensemble casts - with several celebrating a milestone 75th anniversary in 2024, we couldn’t resist celebrating some of our favourites in Averys Wine Cellars…

Earlier this year, we enjoyed screenings of Passport to Pimlico and Whisky Galore! (the latter conveniently taking place on Burns Night). This story of a stranded whisky shipment on a remote Scottish island promises to be the perfect watch for Burns Night - enjoyed alongside a Scotch whisky tasting, naturally!

Our celebration of all things Ealing continues in September, with a screening of Kind Hearts and Coronets. With themed wine tastings accompanying each screening, this is the perfect way to discover - or rediscover - these cornerstones of British cinema.

And if you like the idea of a screening with, ahem, ‘whisky galore’, you’re in luck - we’re showing it again on St Andrews Day!
