Reopening of Britain’s oldest working cinema

Reopening of Britain's oldest working cinema

Footage shows the inside of Britain’s oldest working cinema which has reopened after it was saved from closing after 112 years.

Since its construction in 1909 from a converted taxi rank, the Electric Cinema has entertained film lovers in Birmingham for more than a century.

Its future was cast into doubt when the pandemic forced it to close almost two years earlier, prompting fears that it might never reopen.

Kevin Markwick, a businessman from Canada, intervened to save the historic art-deco house of pictures. The building has been reopened for its first time since March 2020.
