Having smashed its Crowdfunder target earlier this year, Hell's Bells, made by Exeter based film and theatre company Wandering Tiger, will receive a local screening on Friday 2 December 2016 at Exeter Phoenix as part of the Two Short Nights film festival.
For those who can't wait that long, Halloween will also see the release of a special Hell's Bells trailer via Wandering Tiger's website and social media.

Exeter Morris Men and the ladies of Glory of the West invite anyone who has ever wanted to try Morris Dancing to come along to the Exeter Cathedral Chapter House to meet us and 'Have a Go'. if you enjoy it, which we are sure you will, you might even consider joining one of the local Morris Dancing sides.
