I, too, remember visiting the Arcadia as a small boy nearly 50 years ago. It was called The Scratch because of the legendary quality of its resident fleas.
A member of staff (who doubled as the half-time ice cream purveyor) would walk up and down the aisles between programmes with a huge Flit spray but, despite this, the infestation was never really completely eradicated.
