    I remember when it opened in my hometown by Julian Clary.

    If regularly go every Monday to see what the new VHS releases were and then on a Friday for the latest games.

    I’m sure I went for a midnight launch of something but I can’t remember what. It might have been The X Files on VHS?

    Just double checked on a Wiki, they started releasing two episodes a tape, two tapes a month. But the show became so popular, they scrapped that after just a couple of months and decided to do it differently.

    This was before major internet, so I would discover things at hmv if never heard of before.

    I remember discovering a 4CD soundtrack set to the Star Wars trilogy. A CD for each film with the fourth CD containing rare unreleased music. Bought that instantly I think.

    Yeah, lots of other memories too. 😁
