The owners of pubs including The Lion at Brinsley and Oliver's Pub & Kitchen in Eastwood have announced "big news" that they're launching a new venue. The family-run business is going from strength to strength and say it's all thanks to their regulars.
This time the Oliver family are branching out over the Derbyshire border to take on The Regal, a nightclub in Ripley, with a famous connection. It was there that Sir Cliff Richard launched his career, at what was then the Regal Ballroom, in 1958 - and there's a blue plaque on the wall marking the occasion.
Kane Oliver said: "It was there Sir Cliff Richard was discovered. My understanding is he had a fan club who met there in the past so hopefully we can resurrect that.
