The question begs, with all of that front stage space, why a screen so small? The scope ratio is correct but there was a lot of room to make it bigger.

The Big Problems we had was the throw and acute angle Legal site lines. When we did it the local Authority came in and measured to check we did it to the book. They came in and marked when it had to go.. The inspectors to-day do not seem to know of the regulations when it came to the multiprexes…… Birmingham was pain in the neck the to do anything.. 2.The Wall that the screen was on. used the front gerder of the Balcony edge to supprt it.. As a Family company we did not have the funds to put in extra steel work to extend out.. The screen was 26' scope. The No1 Screen we used 48' wide with moveable to masking as well as sides.. Hope this helps
