              <p>This comment was posted on line (Facebook) by Lyn Durrington – Quote: My grandfather, Chess Coghill, was the manager of Burwood Skyline Drive in Theatre, from the day it opened until his death – Comment: Referring to the staff photo – I imagine the gentleman in the black bow tie is Chess Coghill? – Notice the standard ratio screen, and yet “The Robe” was screening at the Regent (Melbourne City) in big screen CinemaScope? at the time - your guess ! – Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript">
