Two films showing on the opening night were 100 Men and a Girl, starring Deana Durbin, and Two’s Company with Gordon Harker. and the British Paramount News. Future presentations included Jack Buchanan and Elsie Randolph in “Smash and Grab”, Ronald Colman in “Lost Horizon” and Sabu in “Elephant Boy”. A popular innovation was the Café on the first floor, which was open daily from 12-30 p.m. and where patrons could meet their friends before or after the show and enjoy luncheons, teas and light refreshments. The proceeds of the first night where donated to the local hospital. Changes to lifestyle and television had taken its toll on the Regal. on 10th June 1972 after showing the last film “Gumshoe” with Albert Finney and Billie Whitelaw the Regal closed its doors as a cinema. after a Quick makeover the ground floor was re-opened on 28th June 1972 as the Coronet Bingo Hall, and the balcony a few weeks later as a Snooker Hall.
