My clearest remembered ones:

My brother and I went to see Once Upon A Time In The West and Once Upon A Time In America at Riverside Studios. Quick Chinese takeaway in between.

All three Godfather films at the Prince Charles one Sunday. For a fiver.

M*A*S*H and McCabe And Mrs Miller at the Everyman. Laughing hysterically by myself. To the first film, that is.

Celebrating Bob Dylan's 50th at the Scala one Saturday in May 1991: Don't Look Back, Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid and The Last Waltz. Great, great stuff.

I remember reading about a cinema doing a whole season of double bills programmed by Derek Malcolm. 26 double bills of films that were connected only alphabetically. He said that some, like The Wild Bunch and Wild Strawberries, had more in common than you'd think.

I saw these two on a double bill when I was in my early teens. It was in the days of continuous screenings - as soon as one finished the other one started, give or take a couple of trailers and ads.

Somehow I managed to see Carry On Cleo FIRST. Of course I didn't find it particularly funny as I had no idea what they were on about.

Then the REAL Cleopatra came on, and of course I just cracked up realising what the Carry On team had been sending up!

Most bizarre double bill I ever saw was Gregory's Girl followed by the Postman always rings twice. Er, why? Did someone think they were both rom coms? Or did I just not get the jokes in Postman? It was fairly ridiculous.
But otherwise thank you Leeds Hyde Park Cinema.

Disney used to do these when I first started going to the cinema with my Mam & brother. It was invariably an animated classic with a non-animated non-classic. So we saw Peter Pan with The Spaceman & King Arthur, or Dumbo with Condorman.

I remember my folks going to see Blazing Saddles in a double bill with one of the Confessions films.Dad said that having laughed all the way through Blazing Saddles it was a relief to sit silently through Mr Askwith's antics and be able to leave before the end to get home early.

Double bills of Bond movies were a regular occurence and also the Clouseau films. Good value though the prints were pretty worn out and knackered, and the soundtrack scratchy and booming, all in mono, in cinemas that weren't being looked after properly... some of those buildings were wonderful and thank god not all demolished but its possible to be too nostalgic as well - even though the double bills were cheap in my memory the cinemas were pretty empty. What I do miss is having a teeenage pint and a smoke in the cinema bars (even though I gave up smoking a long time ago)

I assume that the distributors put these double bills out because of the small amount of new feature films in production. My recollection is that Jaws & Star Wars got people back into cinemas in massive numbers and that's when the cinemas themselves got a bit of TLC - though definitely losing some character on the way

Taxi Driver and Midnight Express did the rounds together a lot back in the day.

I saw Porridge The Movie as a double bill with Capricorn One.

'Smoke' and it's companion piece 'Blue In The Face' at the Cambridge Indie cinema(can't remember what it's prper title) back in 1996. they even had an intermission for a quick bifter break

Monty Python And The Holy Grail and Blazing Saddles did the rounds for a couple of years in the early 80's. I went to see them twice with the Old Man. Made me laugh like a drain the first time, more the second. Still two of the funniest films ever.

Can't think of any other double-bills I went to see. We need to remember that any film you went to see back in the day had a 'B' movie in support so all films were, in effect, double-bills.

Airplane followed by Life Of Brian - I laughed so much my stomach physically ached when I came out of the cinema.
Gregory's Girl and Chariots of Fire - we actually stayed in the cinema to watch Gregory's Girl again.
