Peppard Revels
The original Peppard Revels are reputed to have been rather bawdy and drunken events that took place on the (Peppard) Common in the eighteenth century. The Revels were revived in the modern form at the end of 1999 to welcome in the new Millennium and continue to host events on the Common to celebrate national and local events.
Now, each year over winter, Peppard Revels hosts five film nights. Usually in October, November, January, February and March. Tickets (purchased in advance) are £15 and include the film, a meal and glass of wine
The Next Film is on 22nd November 2024 : Murder on the Orient Express (1974)
All star cast including Albert Finney as the famous detective, Lauren Bacall, Sean Connery.
In December 1935, when his transcontinental luxury train is stranded by deep snow, detective Hercule Poirot is called on to solve a murder that occurred in his car the night before, with a multitude of suspects.
