Opening in 1937, with around 1,800 seats, the Ambassador Cinema was a relatively large venue that had a tea lounge, as well as a sprung dance floor, and was probably the main entertainment centre for Portsmouth and surrounding areas. It was opened with Will Hay at the ceremony which must have been quite a coup at the time. It was renamed as the Odeon after a takeover and traded under the name from 1945, until its closure in 1976. Originally a Top Rank Bingo club, it was at some point taken over by Crown Bingo who still operate today.
