My interest in cinema history began as an undergraduate student at the University of Sheffield and was then developed during an MA at Queen’s University Belfast. I then furthered this interest in the doctoral thesis from which this book emerged. I am grateful to all the students and staff who encouraged (or at least tolerated) my enthusiasm for historical cinemas. I wish to thank the late Keith Jeffery for his help during my MA and for his encouragement in the PhD application process. My PhD supervisor Sean O’Connell has been very generous with his advice, guidance and support. Since completing my PhD, I have received support from many academic colleagues both at Queen’s University Belfast and on the European Cinema Audiences project. I have been extremely fortunate that many intelligent people have read part or all the manuscript. I would like to thank Kieran Connell, Ida Milne, Tim Somers, Conor Campbell, Stuart Irwin, Ryan Mallon and Jack Crangle for kindly reading parts of my PhD thesis. My examiners, Melvyn Stokes and Fearghal McGarry, offered positive feedback and encouraged me to convert the thesis into a monograph. One of the great benefits of publishing in the New Historical Perspectives series has been the guidance, mentoring and support of several talented historians. John Sedgwick, Penny Summerfield, Heather Shore and Robert James all read a draft of my monograph and offered suggestions for improvement. Their advice and editorial guidance has undoubtedly made this a far better book than it might have been. I am also indebted to everyone at the Royal Historical Society, the Institute of Historical Research and University of London Press who helped to create this book, particularly Jane Winters, Emily Morrell, Philip Carter and Kerry Whitston. The work was carried out in a number of archives and libraries. I would like to thank archivists and staff at Belfast Central Library, the Cinema Museum, the Cinema Theatre Association Archive, PRONI, Sheffield City Archives, Sheffield Local Studies Library and Sheffield University. I am particularly grateful to my former colleagues at McClay Library Special Collections, who accommodated my employment alongside doctoral research. My extended research trips to Sheffield could not have happened ix Cinemas and Cinema-Going in the United Kingdom without the kind hospitality of Chris Wood and the Dobson family. Thank you for tolerating me during two enjoyable summers. I am privileged to have spent so much of my research speaking to people about their memories and experiences of cinema-going. Thank you to everyone I interviewed as part of this project and to the many people who helped organize these interviews. I would like to thank all my friends and family members who offered support and guidance throughout this process. I am especially grateful to my two nieces, Daisy and Tilly, who always put a smile on my face when times are tough. My greatest debt is to Lauren Rose Browne, without whose love and support this book would never have seen the light of day. I dedicate this book to her. x List of abbreviations ABC Associated British Cinemas BBC British Broadcasting Corporation BBFC British Board of Film Censors CEA Cinematograph Exhibitors’ Association FIDO Film Industry Defence Organisation ITV Independent Television NATKE National Association of Theatrical and Kinema Employees PRONI Public Record Office of Northern Ireland UTV Ulster Television xi Introduction Cinema-going was the most popular commercial leisure activity in the first half of the twentieth century. UK cinema attendance grew significantly in the Second World War and peaked in 1946 with 1.6 billion recorded admissions. Though ‘going to the pictures’ remained a popular pastime for the remainder of the 1940s, the transition from war to peacetime altered citizens’ leisure habits.

  • Discovering Amy Johnson at the Hull History Centre
    Discovering Amy Johnson at the Hull History Centre Worship Street, Hull, HU2 8BG 01482 317500 www.hullhistorycentre.org.uk Introduction The Hull History Centre is home to the Hull City Archives, the Hull Local Studies collections and the University of Hull Archives, and between us we hold archive collections, local studies collections and books, photographs, newspapers, maps and plans. Finding what you are looking for can prove daunting, so we have created a number of guides to help you. This guide relates to Amy Johnson, the world-famous pilot who was born in Hull in July 1903, became the first women to fly solo to Australia in 1931, but died tragically young in January 1941. Many of the books in the reading list can be borrowed from our library if you are a member of Hull libraries. If you are not yet a member, you can join when you visit the Centre. The items listed within the Local Studies and City Archives relate to records found within collections not necessarily wholly relating to Amy Johnson, but which may prove useful to your research. There is only one collection solely related to Amy, and that is the collection of letters to Hans Areggar at L DIAJ. These letters have been digitised and can be viewed via our Amy Johnson Letters web page on the History Centre web site. These lists are not exhaustive and our on-line catalogue may also help you to find what you are looking for. Type Amy Johnson into the search engine and it will bring up any records or books we hold relating to her.
