THE new Odeon cinema at Eagles Meadow in Wrexham has proved a hit with film fans, selling more than 30,000 tickets in its opening month.

Figures released by the cinema yesterday reveal how film fans have munched their way through nearly half-a-tonne of pick-and-mix and enjoyed close to 5,000 scoops of ice cream.

The eight-screen multiplex cinema, at the heart of the £100m Eagles Meadow shopping and leisure complex, opened for business on March 13.
