The Regal

In the fifties I remember the Regal cinema at Temple Fields. I think it was an old factory converted to a cinema. I used to go on Saturday morning with my older brother. You had to be arrive early or it would be full and you would not get in!
There was a piano and we would have to sing before we could watch the films.
"We come along on Saturday morning, greeting every body with a smile etc" could be heard every week. Great days. It was not the same when the Odeon was opened in the new town and the Regal closed.
