The former landlord of a North Wales pub that appeared as one of Britain's toughest boozers in a documentary series has shared his thoughts on his old establishment appearing on the show. Tony Taylor used to run the Old Vaults, now under new ownership and called The Long Pull, on Chester Street in Wrexham for a couple of years in the early 2000s.
The 59-year-old took over the pub from his parents in 2003 before parting ways with it just two years later. But during those two years, Mr Taylor had an eventful run as the landlord, overseeing one of its busiest periods in recent decades, reports North Wales Live.
One of the wildest days of running the pub began one Sunday morning when a Sky film crew arrived at the inn to shoot an episode of 'The Toughest Pubs in Britain' in 2004. The producers put £300 behind the bar and the results were then captured on camera.
