I remember this cinema with great affection.It really was luxurious.I watched the Sound of Music at least four times,the screen and sound system was second to none,the seating was so comfortable,you could almost imagine you were sat in an armchair.I’m in my late fifties now and have very fond memories of Derbys cinemas notably the Gaumont on London road,Art-deco at it’s finest.Also the A.B.C cinema in East street.I live abroad now,but am occasionally in Derby(My place of birth).I like to go on a nostalgia trip,and get a warm glow,reliving my cinema past!What joy!
