Does anyone remember the Cinema at Waterloo? and did anyone go there? I went there a few times in the 1960s when the cartoons were showing. :lol:

The News Theatre Waterloo Station opened in the late-Summer 1934, and it was open daily from 9am until 11pm, in the late-1950’s the News Theatre went over to screening one hour long continuous programmes of cartoons but later in the 1960’s went over to screening double bills of old Hollywood ‘classics’, and it was re-named Classic Cinema Waterloo. It closed on 14th March 1970 and laid empty for 14 years until it was demolished in 1988.

I remember watching The Desert Fox (James Mason) in this cinema when we were nippers! My dad use to work at the parcels depot at Waterloo Station and would drop us off at this cinema, more like a creche for the workers at Waterloo Station. Believe it or not we were absolutely safe in there as the usherettes knew all the kids and kept an eye on us :D :D :D
