Poker to feature in Bond-themed evening - 19th December 2008

Hebden Bridge Picture house is hosting a Bond-themed evening on December 20th.

Those who attend will watch a screening of Daniel Craig's latest outing as 007 Quantum of Solace and then move to B@r Place for a casino night, reports the Halifax Courier.

Customers have been invited to turn up in their tuxedos and cocktail dresses, or even dressed as their favourite Bond characters.

There will be alcohol-free cocktails at the cinema as well as canapes and a live jazz band.

After the screening poker fans will be able to hit the felt, where they will be entertained by a video DJ.

While poker is most commonly associated with Craig's Bond because it made up a large part of the story in Casino Royale - his first outing - there will also be roulette and blackjack.

The first glimpse of Bond in the inaugural film of the franchise Dr No sees him sitting at a table playing Chemin de Fer with Sylvia Trench at Les Ambassadeurs Club in London.
