- BRIDGE HOUSE : DVD -

The film of the Bridge House book launch and reunion gig from the summer of 2007. The reunion gig features the first and last band to ever play the Bridge. Remus Down Boulevard, featuring Dave Edwards and Dennis Stratton plus a special guest performance by Chris Thompson who sings some of his biggest hits. The film also incorporates rare archive footage from the last days of the Bridge House and a special feature on the release of Jab & Move, a Bridge house single written by Terry's son Glen. Cut together to give a fly on the wall view of what made the Bridge special and put E16 on the rock 'n' roll map.

THE BRIDGE HOUSE DVD includes Remus Down Boulevard and Chris Thompson playing live, there is also extended footage of the book launch with the Bridge House loyals.

We also go right back to 1979 when Glen Murphy's Repton Boxing Club was filmed singing their single 'Jab n Move' that was released on Bridge House Records.

We move on to the final night of the Bridge that was filmed by Nationwide Televsion and shows interviews by Terence Murphy and Steve waller(with beard). Terry Junior can be seen serving behind the bar,there is also a shot of Linda and Glen,and Dave our old pot man. There are also some interviews with the customers giving there opinion of the pub.

There is a shot of the old Stage with the video jukebox on it. We then get to see the new stage with Wasted Youth performing Charlie and Harry, one of the favourite songs as is their first single Jealousy. This was taken from the Wasted Youth DVD 'Survivors' that is also for sale on the website.

So you get to see both stages that featured some of the greatest musicians on the planet.

Back to the gig, it was great to see all my family there, Brother John, Eillen dancing with all her grandchildren, good shots of my two sisters, Marie wearing the Terence Murphy T-shirt, baby sister Ann boogie on down. The couple who were dancing most of the night in front of the Camera,was Roger Diamond the drummer from Wedgewoods, Dave and Dennis' first band.

Great to see Steve Fisher, Gary Lammin, Roy Weard, Rocco Barker, Colin Barton etc. All Bridge House musos and loyals Mick O'Brian and Rob Fisher.

It is also great to see the shots from across the road from the Bridge with the single flyover as it used to be when we were there.

Rest in Peace Patty Coldwell the interviewer for the TV, she sadly died a few years after this recording of cancer. Those TV shots were filmed during the Day, thats why there are not many customers present.

Corrections. Maurice Hope was Light Middleweight Champion of the World not Light Heavyweight. Terry Marsh was the undefeated light welterweight world champion, the only undefeated boxer ever in the world at this weight. Tony Burns is the world renowned Boxing trainer at repton boxing club, he is seen in the gym with his glasses on.
