Sienna Miller will star alongside Brad Pitt in The Lost City of Z.

“We’ve no cinema here in Greyabbey so we’ll have to go to Newtownards or Bangor to see this film.

“It’s about some boy who went off to find a lost civilisation. I think he died doing it but at least it’s put Greyabbey on the map.”
