Within the introduction above, reference is made to the Palladium serving as a cinema from 19th March 1928, for three months. In fact it hosted something of a double act, as this clipping attests: View link

The Six Rockets Acrobatic Act included my grandmother and her sister. More interesting stories about them are included here for readers' interest: View link

According to one of my grandmother’s daughters, she and Sophie Tucker enjoyed a good laugh and appreciated one another’s company!

I am very grateful to a CT denizen who passed on the clipping to me as part of a research project into the adventures of my grandmother. The clipping comes from an online resource about the history of the London Palladium: http://tinyurl.com/4p3pj7d

I hope these links will be useful to readers and visitors.
