LET’S journey back to a pre-festive Ilkley Cinema: there were beasts, a man named Blake and a ginger cat named Bob.

It was a magical time and we loved it so much, we’ve decided to do it all over again.

And in some cases this week, we go just a little bit further back in time.

Have you ever wondered what your ancestors were like and the impossibly unimaginable world that they lived in?

For Michael Fassbender in Assassin’s Creed, he doesn’t have to. For the technology to access ancestor’s memories has been created, allowing him to walk in the footsteps of Aguilar, a mighty assassin poised with deadly power.

Armed with skills and knowledge he never dreamed of, he must journey deep into the world of the Spanish Inquisition, almost 500 years before he took his first breath.

There, Aguilar must retrieve the Apple of Eden, which holds the genetic code for free will and, in turn, fight against the oppressive and powerful Templar organisation in the present day.

Winner of the prestigious Palme d’Or, I, Daniel Blake makes an emotional return to our screen.

We follow one man’s battle against the agonising process of claiming benefits after suffering a major heart attack and the strong bond he makes with a destitute, single mother who’s struggling to take care of her two children.

Just what does Newt Scamander have in his suitcase?

We find out as Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them magically reappears. And when that case goes walkies, so do some of the exceptional creatures that reside within it. It is up to Newt and his new friends to help rescue them before the No Maj’s discover them.

Help can come in many forms, and it’s not always in the way that you expect.

In the case of A Street Cat Named Bob, it is a scruffy little stray cat who is probably one of the most understated of heroes for recovering addict James.
