@peter_gillon_5cwhc8skpc5il Assuming you are referring to the web site and not the IMDb mobile apps, you can control your location by clicking the location link under the "Showtimes & Tickets" heading on https://www.imdb.com/showtimes/ (it presumably shows Peterborough in your case).
For more precise instructions see https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/discover-watch/showtimes-ticket-experience-faq/GVV88QD6CJ8FJ2EK and specifically the question:
How can I change my location?
You can update your location by turning off the ‘Current Location’ setting on your browser, or by selecting the 'change' option near the top of the page. A box will appear where you can manually input the city or zipcode you want to search.
When you change your location to a postal code, we remember the postal code for when you visit the Showtimes page again later. The remembered postal code will be a 'coarse' postal code, even if you originally entered a 'fine' postal code.
For example, in the US, if you enter a 'fine' Zip+4 postal code (e.g. 98105-3702):
When you re-visit the page again later, the remembered postal code will only be the 'coarse' five-digit zip postal code (e.g. 98105):
Hope this helps.
