Majestic Cinema

I remember attending the “Star” Saturday afternoon matinees in the early 30’s when the admission price was tuppence.Sometimes we were given an apple at the box office and ,occasionally,we would be allowed in by giving an empty jamjar bearing in mind that these fetched tuppence when taken back to the Co-op.
Regarding the fire in 1939 my Father played the drums in a dance hall in the same building when the fire occured.Needless to say all the instruments were lost and,not being insured,he never played the drums again.Derek T.
