00:00I'm Rob Lane and with my good friend Chris Annable we both run straight to video the
00:1480s video shop in Ulfreton. Growing up in the 80s both me and Chris we wanted to
00:23recreate that whole vibe and feeling you got when you went to the video shop in
00:28on like Friday nights and Saturday nights pick out a film you never knew
00:32what you're going to get just scouring the shelves who knew what you're going
00:35to come back with so wanted to recreate that feeling for people which I think is
00:39what we managed to do. Well not only is it a trip back in time for people to the
00:44childhoods or the teenage years so they can browse the shelves pick out films
00:48take photos with the films and we've also got an 80s bedroom which recreates
00:54the old-school 80s bedroom with the bed covers and old posters and things like
01:00that we've also got a cinema room which people can hire out for birthday parties
01:04to show film which they've perhaps never seen on the big screen hang out and have
01:08some fun and yeah just a whole step back in time really. The videos on the shelves
01:12are just to bring back memories for people but we have a whole merchandise
01:17section we have a selection of tapes that are for sale loads of t-shirts and
01:21loads of cool stuff which you perhaps wouldn't get anywhere else. Everybody has
01:24the same story they remember times of going to the video shop with a mum or
01:28dad on a Friday night and I never get tired of hearing those stories it's a
01:32lot of fun so yeah as long as people get that feeling it's mission accomplished
01:36as far as I'm concerned. We like to try and do cool stuff for the area as well
01:41not just for fans of nostalgia but for the Alforton area so we're bringing in
01:45special guests people from Star Wars we've had Mike Quinn who played Nynum
01:50in Return of the Jedi and loads of Jim Henson things and in the coming months
01:54we've got Cobra an OG gladiator from the 1990s series he's coming to visitors and
01:59we've got Hollywood actor Charlie Slater coming in May. Charlie was in The
02:04Delinquents with Kylie Minogue and he was the voice of E.T. in the recent
02:07Holiday Reunion commercial so he's done some really cool stuff so yeah just
02:11trying to bring different things to the area and just have a lot of fun. We're on
02:15all social media just simply search at 80s video shop or 80svideoshop.co.uk
02:20and we're pretty easy to track down there's not many of us out there.
