Under the current Act of Parliment there needs only to be one entrance into the Projection Box.. Providing the Cinema do’s not show a nitrate print.. I had a Disagreement with a Birmingham Fire Officer over this point. So I got the Home Office Technical man up to deal with it.. The Fire office told him he was wrong.. Great Fun happened.. Fun to watch.. Fire officer left with is tail between his legs :o)
The Wartime repair was a very spartan… I remember seeing the interior in 1968 when I did Reliefs at the Regal. The Chief Projectionist at the Regal Had been the last manager of the Adelpi
I was told by a high up Rank contact I dealt with regular. That there is or was an interesting conditon on the lease from the Freeholders. That a number of Seats had to be on permenantly reserved for them…
@ HowardBHass… And So It should…….. Even though I am ex ABC……….
Hmm.. I know those Projectors… They had been in my stores. Is John Angel still involved..
