I notice that only a few of the Showcase Cinemas have been added as POI's.

It is fairly simple to add the others and I'm happy to help, but I can only get the Post Codes off their website this will not accurately position the cinemas. Some it will be possible to reposition the location as the satellite image will help show the correct location but some areas won't have a good image and the vague post code area will be all you can get!??! Having a quick look most are very obvious where the accurate location is as the satellite images are good enough - but what about the rest!??!

Is it still worth adding the missing Cinemas as they will be within the same area and I'm sure people will be able to see the big building by the time they get close!

Missing entries:

Birmingham - Added today
Bluewater - DA9 9SG
Bristol - BS2 0SP

I would say: do the best you can, and any slight inaccuracies will hopefully be corrected by someone local to them.

That seems to be how a lot of the other caegories are getting improved.

OK all have now been added - only a few are approximate "Post Code Entries" most thankfully had a good satellite image to help. But as you say hopefully a local can sort out the others!!

Location looks correct (or has been corrected :D).
