Band 7+: The line graph below gives information on cinema attendance in the UK. Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information given.

The line graph illustrates cinema attendance trends in the UK over two decades, from 1990 to 2010, based on different age groups.

Overall, cinema attendance saw a significant increase across all age groups from 1990 to 2010. The most notable growth was observed in the 14–24 age group, while the 44–54 age group consistently had the lowest attendance percentages.

Delving into specifics, in 1990, a mere 15% of the 14–24 age group were recorded as cinemagoers, a stark contrast to the over 35% participation rate of those aged over 40. A gradual uptick in cinema attendance was evident from 1990 to 2010 across all age groups, with a slight decline noted from 1995 to 2000. By 2010, the cohort of 44 to 54-year-olds remained the predominant cinema attendees in the UK.

Furthermore, it is discernible that the turn of the millennium saw an across-the-board increase in cinema attendance in the UK for all age categories. By the end of the period, on average, there had been a 5% rise in cinema attendance in the UK from the figures in 2005.
