OWNERS of Barnsley's independent cinema say they are not frightened by news that a nine screen multiplex is to be built at the Alhambra.
Manager and co-owner of the Parkway, Rob Younger is confident the price structure and 'intimate quality service' offered at the Parkway will continue to attract movie lovers of all ages.
And he says he is buoyed and delighted by the outpouring of support and praise for the Parkway which has flooded social media since last week's announcement that a rival was heading to the town.
"I admit I was very pleasantly surprised and utterly delighted by so many people standing up to say how much they like the Parkway and how important it is that we remain open," he said.
