Geoffrey Wheeler’s affectionate portrait of the Pavilion Theatre in Glasgow, one of the last Variety venues in Scotland.

Built in 1895 by architect Bertie Crewe, it boasts a magnificent ceiling which rolls back to reveal the stars, and is watched over - or so they say - by the ghost of one of its best-loved comedians, Tommy Morgan.

Among those recalling their days at the Pavilion are Johnny Beattie, Mary Lee Milroy, and Rikki Fulton.

Series featuring Variety theatres from all over the United Kingdom.
