I have weird and wonderful memories of the Bedford Granada Cinema from when I was growing up in Bedford in the 80’s. I distinctly remember seeing Rocky IV, Halloween and Cocktail as a ten year old. Wonderful atmosphere, timeless architecture and always a couple on the back row making out. Loads of fights, also I remember they had the smartly dressed ladies patrolling the aisles before showtime with the little torches showing you to your seat and selling ices and pop. Smoked first Marlboro red in the darkness and always remember the thrill of sneaking into an “X” rated film. Then they knocked it down.Was anyone informed?An absolute disgrace.ChrisParsons
