Death of a Gentleman documentary, Sunday 27 September 1.30pm, East Dulwich Picturehouse

Hi all


Myself and some others are hoping to get a screening of the acclaimed new cricket documentary, Death of a Gentleman, shown on the above date at the Picturehouse in East Dulwich. We're doing this through the Ourscreen website which enables people to generate their own screenings at local cinemas.


The documentary is a highly acclaimed look at some of the bad practice that surrounds cricket, made over a number of years by two cricket journalists. It should be a great watch for sport and documentary fans and has played to sold out audiences in cinemas across the country.


We need at least 22 people to sign up to the screening, and as I write we need 14 more. If you're interested in joining us at the screening it would be really good if you could sign up here: http://www.ourscreen.com/screening/39888


If the screening ultimately doesn't go ahead you won't be charged for the ticket, but hopefully there will be enough interest around here to get it shown!


Thanks a lot.

Hi all,


I'm very pleased to say we have enough people signed up and so the screening will be going ahead on 27th September. Tickets are still available from the ourscreen link: http://ourscreen.com/screening/39888 or direct from the Picturehouse website: https://www.picturehouses.com/cinema/East_Dulwich_Picturehouse/film/ourscreen-death-of-a-gentlemen


There is also the possibility that one of the directors will be joining us for a Q&A after the film though this isn't confirmed yet.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
