The manager at one of the UK's oldest cinemas has missed his job so much during lockdown that he has created his own cinema screen - in his GARAGE.

Wayne Burns, 50, has been general manager of the 105-year-old Leiston Film Theatre - the oldest purpose-built theatre in Suffolk - for the past 28 years.

But since the cinema closed in March due to the coronavirus lockdown, Wayne has been looking for activities to keep busy - and has turned his garage into a nine-seater cinema.

The project took Wayne, from Leiston, Suffolk, about a month to complete - and includes red velour stage curtains and wall drapes, gold cinema curtain tassles, and even a popcorn machine.
