The Convict's Code was an American film released in 1939
Sorry I forgot to say the cinema opened on 7th March 1938 with Will Hay in "Oh, Mister Porter"
Ade where was that situated with regards to the Scott Arms
Thanks A Sparks I've got my bearings now after living there for 21 years . All I seen on that side was the housing/ insurance companiesIf you were at the Scots, looking towards Walsall, the Beacon was on the right side of the road (where the Queslett Road goes off)
Yes that's right William, it used to be where all those insurance buildings are etc, next to to 2 houses social clubAde where was that situated with regards to the Scott Arms
I might have seen that one in the same place (but not the same day). Was that the one that had an episode with an over-the-cliff ending in which the hero is seen to have escaped from the car in the next episode although he was visibly in there on the first?Then finally one Sunday afternoon 1965/66 we went to the Scala Superama Smallbrook Queensway and saw the whole fifteen episodes of the 1943 of Batman . With J Carroll Naish(Charlie Chan) as Dr Dakar

You are probably right but there do appear to have been a number of small picture houses around. Just enjoying wandering round and getting some exercise to be honest!only a guess brian but it does not look like an ex cinema building to me...but who knows
