Recently announced that this cinema set to close.
Screen 2, the worst film presentation ever. Both projectors were in the same booth, but, 2 was projected through the dreaded periscope system, and when it was hot, those mirrors sure distorted, the picture was never very good in focus, I know, I battled with it for ages in 1976, when the projection room was never below 96deg,and in the winter, you couldn`t get number 2 warm, as the conversion was a bash job of heating, I have seen people take rugs into the place, but still my home for a long time, with very good memories.
Yes when Classic operated it
Michael, this wasn’t @ the above cinema was it? or is my mind playing tricks.
my father worked as a projectionist in the 1970s
my projectionist home for 20 years, many happy memmories.
