Given our very changeable weather here in Ireland, it's likely you've see the inside of the cinema on more than one occasion over the past number of years.

Some people tend to go nearly every weekend while others rarely go at all.

Take Ruby Druce from Donegal for example. Up until recently, Ruby hadn't been to the cinema in quite some time - 80 years to be exact.

The 103 year old became the oldest person to ever see a film at Century Cinemas in Letterkenny this week.

Ruby's niece Margot was the one who brought her to the cinema and Mairead spoke to her to hear all about the incredible story.
