The true beacon of summer's arrival is the announcement of Film 4's annual Summer Screen event at London's Somerset House - and this year's line-up promises three premieres and a 20th-anniversary screening of a seminal British classic.
Things to Come and festival favourites Captain Fantastic and Julieta will get their UK premiere with the latter's Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar introducing the film in person.
Other films that'll screen at the outdoor event include Sunset Boulevard, 10 Things I Hate About You, Jackie Brown and Nicolas Rog classic Walkabout.
Elsewhere, a double bill of Ex_Machina and RoboCop will offer an evening of entertainment for sci-fi fans.
As was previously announced, Danny Boyle's Trainspotting will receive a 20th-anniversary screening on 15 August which we're frankly hoping will be followed by some kind of sneak peek at sequel T2, due to be released January 2017.
One of Stanley Kubrick's films will ALSO be shown in a surprise screening that'll coincide with Somerset House's new exhibition Daydreaming with Stanley Kubrick. It kicks off on 30 June.
