Re the Apollo, I recall reading an article, probably in the 1970's, in a Sunday magazine about the Apollo. Apparantly the projectionist managed to save a few items from the Cinema before it was demolished. A few seats, curtains, bill boards, posters, that sort of thing. He re-erected them in his garden shed and made it in to a mini picture house. At weekends he would put on a film show for his friends. He lived in Erdington somewhere. I wonder what happened to him and his Picture Shed?
