Bizarrely, the last time I saw that was in a restaurant - can't remember what it was or what it was called - in Lordship Lane. I think it was whatever was there before GBK moved in.


They must have had a DVD of it or something.

I'm all for community involvement, knowing your market and all that, but if this cinema opens, I hope they are wise enough to be able to decide for themselves which range of films to show. Deciding what films to show based on a public vote would be dismal. I promise not to tell you what films I want to see, if you promise not to impose your personal tastes on me either. With three screens, I hope there will be something for everyone.

Well said.







But Dodgeball wouldn't go amiss.

I live behind the proposed site. Can't ever park anyway which is the sign of thriving gym/butcher/fishmonger etc. not sure how many people would drive to the cinema anyway. Generally if we go to Brixton it's the bus. Happy to accept parking downside for enhanced local amenity that a cinema would bring.

    • For those wanting to boycott US products, it might be useful to consider  a list of brands owned  by Proctor and Gamble:-     Ariel laundry detergent Crest toothpaste[4] Dawn dishwashing Downy fabric softener and dryer sheets Fairy washing up liquid Febreze odour eliminator Gillette razors, shaving soap, shaving cream, body wash, shampoo, deodorant Head & Shoulders shampoo Olay personal and beauty products Oral-B oral hygiene products Pantene haircare products Tide laundry detergents and products Vicks cough and cold products    
    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
