[QUOTE="DarthStanley, post: 398327, member: 1780"] Hi Craig, When Star Wars first came out in 1977,I was 4 years old & the cinema in my home town of Accrington was a Unit 4.In the photo below,there is a bar/nightclub called Shifters to the left but it used to be called the Pickwick bar/restaurant when I was a kid & my mum worked there as a barmaid & was friends with the manageress of the cinema.My mum said that I saw Star Wars about 10 times as she used to take me to work & when she finished,the manageress used to open the doors that were adjacent to the Pickwick (fire doors?) & let me & my mum through for free! 8) Also,at the same cinema in September/October 1984,they ran all 3 films (SW,ESB & ROTJ) back to back & I went to see them & my arse was numb after sitting through over 6 hours of films! :lol: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=accrington+unit+four+cinema&client=safari&hl=en-gb&prmd=mnsiv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjs_8eOjo7MAhUJbRQKHcOjAHIQ_AUICigE&biw=1024&bih=672#imgrc=0H5kVcnRCyV33M%3A [/QUOTE]
