Reel Cinemas Ltd is a chain of multiplex cinemas based in the United Kingdom.
History
[edit]
The first cinema in the chain was the Curzon Cinema in Loughborough, which was established in 2001. Cinemas in other cities and towns were then added to the newly formed Curzon Leisure Group over the next few years. In 2005, the chain was renamed Reel Cinemas Ltd.[1]
In March 2020, all UK cinemas closed indefinitely due to a national lockdown in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
