Maybeme Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Cat631.great minds think alike. My first thought was Roxy, Idworth Road. I believe it is now a carpet showroom or similar. Still looks as tacky as it did when I went dancing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segasonic Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Just shows how old and out of touch I am, I was just about to dive in and tell you about the Roxy but the only Roxy I know is/was on Idsworth Road at Page Hall. If still there, it's probably a Bingo Hall too. It was a bingo hall in the 80s, my Nan used to go there. It's a furniture place now, and half derelict. You can see the front steps in a scene in The Full Monty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushbaby Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Wasn't it the Fiesta or was that next door? Myself and some friends booked to see Tony Christie at the Fiesta (1973?), but he had to cry out due to illness. Norman Wisdom was drafted in as a last minute replacement. I was originally a bit disppappointed as Norman was seen as a bit of an old fogie, but it turned out to be one of the greatest nights of my life. He was so very funny. The kind of funny that still keeps you laughing on the last bus home. What a man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
