Things got a bit nostalgic at the Leader this week, as we looked back at a few of the lost picture houses of Wrexham.

And it sparked some great memories for readers.

K.F. Miller, from Gresford wrote saying: "Thank you for the article about the old Wrexham cinemas.

"I remember well the old Odeon Cinema in Brook Street as the nicest place in town, before we had TV. I can remember going there as a child to the Saturday morning shows. I got to know the manager, Mr Hall, and also the chief projectionist, Mervyn.

"The best memory of the Odeon was that it had the best Cinemascope screen anywhere around here.

"My film memory was seeing The Third Man on a day I had had an injection to stop a runny ear, and it stiffened my leg up as I watched, so when it was over and I came to get my bus home, I had one hell of a job getting up the hill to get to King Street for my bus.

"I still love that film, and have a recording of it, to admire Alida Valli."
