Nostalgia fans will recall queuing round the block, and being entertained, if memory serves, by an old chap in a red tartan suit and tammy playing two penny whistles at once – albeit badly.
Our favourite Odeon story was when the Beatles played there and a policewoman on crowd duty outside sneaked in to see the Fab Four. As she craned her neck, a chap told her: "If you stand in front of me you'll get a better view." It was the Chief Constable.
