Opening of the Odeon Cinema – 1938

To complement Keith Seatons pictures of the Odeon. Group photograph taken at the opening of the /odeon Cinema on the 28th Feb. 1938 Coun. J H Longstaff (seated) who was Chairman of the Spalding U D C, performed the ceremony, with Mrs Longstaff on the right. I wonder what film they watched or who the other dignitaries were?
