The Lock In was an award-winning short film, shot on location at the pub, co-directed by current gaffer Will Norris and Craig Gallivan.

It was a real Barley Mow affair, with the screenplay written by Gary Shelford,  an original score by Jody Lahart and Moses Moorhouse, and with a cast including Caolan Byrne and Lesley Harcourt, who all worked at the pub at the time.

A black comedy telling the story of Colin, a disgruntled landlord, who after years of dealing with abusive customers, finally takes his revenge!
