WHERE to Watch Films for LESS THAN £1 . CINEMA TOURS Loved by Mark Kermode. Amazing SRI LANKAN restaurant that also helps the homeless. Website with the inside scoop on London's Cinemas. BEST OF LONDON with NIGEL SMITH & BEN HOLLAND produced by Ben Afleck
My guest has worked for the BBC and is a true lover of London, film and history who has tours which celebrate all of these and YOU can book on them. His tours have been recommended by countless people on review sites and by musician, author and world’s best film critic Mark Kermode.
He’s also recommended by me as I’ve been on his tour of Camden’s Lost Cinemas.
He runs a London film club where you can join and watch some amazing films for less than a pound each.
He’s helping to keep London film making and cinemas alive with his Memory Palaces website which is a beautiful and informative guide to London’s cinemas past and present.
