Derek not only made up and shown the films, but also worked with a whole variety of acts from school and amateur productions to world famous stars.In this engaging and nostalgic talk, he explores Worksop’s picture houses from their 19th-century beginnings through the Regal’s long history to the modern revival with the Savoy.
This event coincides with The Age of Cine exhibition held at Bassetlaw Museum.
