    Hi. That famous actor was Con O'Neil. He was in a great film called Telstar. And had a short role in the new Batman film. I know him because I used to work there for 8 years until 2015. Loved it.

      I always feel sad when small businesses close.
      And with this being the last DVD/Games rental shop in London - and probably one of the last in the UK - it's the end of an era.

    Nice to see a video/dvd/game rental shop again. I remember the days when I used to rent Megadrive and playstation games from blockbuster back in the 90s.

    Thank you for sharing, I’m I’m America and we have a small handful remaining, I like this video so much. I’m gonna go ahead and subscribe to your channel. I’m really into movies and collecting them not very big into gaming, but I want to support you.

      Nice one dude, I do often look for movies to trade in for voucher at local game stores so there's a bit there. Do you know History Buffs? I used to live with the guy during film school

    Great little vid right here, Im interested in how he’s getting these pre cinema releases. My suspicion is that he’s probably got a link that has access to the screeners. Either that or iptorrents lol.

      Didnt video shops used to have to buy specially licensed tapes/discs to rent out? If there are no other video rental shops left then there can't be any rental copies of new films, so most of this can't be legit anyway
