I use to go to the Star cinema back in the 60's, remember seeing Tommy Steel and remember they had a 99 YO-YO competition.

Use to see films like the Little Rascals, Zorro, and The Lone Ranger.

Hi John, I also used to go to the Star on Saturday afternoons and remember the YoYo competitions, walking the dog etc. Weren't the seat edge gripping serials great? You always thought the hero would never survive until the next week, but there he was the next Saturday getting out of some impossible situation. Phew!!! Do you remember Tarzan? and the fabulous tricks he got up to?
