  • ... that the Astoria Theatre (pictured) in Brighton—one of the south coast's largest "super-cinemas"—showed its last film in 1977, and permission to demolish it has been granted?

  • Wow, that's a great piece of work. New, plenty long enough, nicely referenced. You can put this up for GA review as is. QPQ done. Hook fact AGF (the 1977 part). Personally, I don't like hooks that provide too much information; you could consider putting less info in, but it certainly meets DYK requirements. Schwede66 02:21, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Comment. Well-written and appropriately cited. For the hook, I'd change the "permission to demolish" to "set to be demolished" but it's fine the way it is now. Alex ShihTalk 02:18, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
