A friend of mine Roy Moore bought the premises and turned it into a prop hire company for T.V and film.
He then built a studio inside to make adverts and even some films.
The interiors of The Italian job were filmed here.
I took Roy to the cinema ten years ago when it was a Chinese restaurant.
He told me so many stories as we were given a conducted tour that I asked him to write his memories of the Odeon and his company which eventually became Superhire. He sent me 12 pages just a few days later and they are now in the Gunnersbury Museum.
