Tim Richards is celebrating a milestone he feared he might not see – the 20th anniversary of the creation of Vue, Europe’s largest privately owned cinema chain. That achievement looked precarious in the pandemic, when the world’s biggest cinema operators were pushed to the brink.
“When it is your baby, your firstborn, going through this, it is very tough,” says Richards, who is in recovery mode himself, having “had an argument with a tree and lost” on a recent heli-skiing trip in his native Canada.
