I remember them days well Foyle. The stamping of the feet in unison to the music was epic.
Yoyo contests during the break were another feature where the kids could show their skills off and win prizes.

Regal cinema Morriston (near Swansea) very early 60's, went every Saturday morning. I remember all the shenannigans going on in there, kids getting chucked out for being too rowdy etc. 6d in the stalls, 9d for the rich kids in the circle. Obligatory bag of sweets on the way in, 3d.
Now where's my iPhone?
