BBC 2 Tonight

WIGAN CASINO......40 years ago this weekend it opened.

There were a few from Blackwood and a few from Porthcawl that went most weeks.

Certainly beat the Brandy Bridge.

Totally agree, loved that place

Pure class. Amazing music. Brilliant scene. Long may it last.

Still having northern soul nights in the Blackwood area. the enjoy yourself scooter club run a night every couple of months in various locations. I will post details for those old mods and northern soulers who are interested.
Keep the faith.

Just watched it now.

I'm too young for the Northern Soul era but can easily see how the house/dance scene of the 90s come from the Northern Soul era
