Just need a bit of clarification.

Was this the first cinema, when owned by ODEON, to get the new Fanatical About Film brand, or is that another cinema?

This photo might be the same 1971 photo linked to on Sep 11, 2005. That link no longer works.

A current (October 2005) view of the exterior of the Odeon Camden Town in North London. It must have been taken very early on a Sunday morning with no traffic or pedestrians to be seen on what is usually a very busy street.

Two mid-1960’s era photographs of the former stalls area of the Gaumont, Camden Town in use as a Bingo Hall.

Entrance to Top Rank Bingo Club which originally was a side emergency exit from the stalls foyer. This is still in use today as the Mecca Bingo Club entrance

An interior view of the former stalls area. Note the original decorative treatment of the Gaumont Cinema has been removed and columns support the extended circle area above, which is still in use today as the Odeon Cinema. The orginal rear stalls cinema seating is still in place.

the lobby still retains much of its streamlined art deco plasterwork but the screens are all nice but dull multiplex style auditoriums with fabric wall covering
at the rear of the building up on the back wall there is an advertising panel that still has the old (and peeling) Gaumont name on view
