Official site featuring good history page.

Being from the Bognor area, I have many memories of the Picturedrome, including watching the Back to the Future trilogy in the wrong order (it was very confusing) and being pelted with sweets by some girls sitting half a dozen rows further back. I also remember the mechanical lantern in the tower being illuminated, certianly in the early 70s when we used to pass the cinema on the way home from visiting my grandmother on each and every Friday night.

You will be humming this all day. Promise. "Lunar baboon with a spoon and a bassoon."
