You and Craig helping the lass touched my heart! Such gentleman ❤️. Alec, you scared the shite out of me almost falling through that floor as it looked like quite a drop, but, I’m sooo glad you’re ok. That Andrew is some piece of work, LMFAO 😂! The photos at the end were top notch 👍! Thank you for the explore! 😊
great vid and find alec, that nightclub reminds me of a sad but true story here in ireland where i am, a nightclub called "the stardust" in artane, dublin which sadly burnt down in 1981 on valentines night. 200 people where killed that night because the firedoors where chained shut because the staff at the time found out people where getting in through them and where told by the manager of the night club to chain them shut when the fire broke out some couldnt get out luckly I wasnt in it that night but is a true story, that club looks so similar to "The Startdust" that was in dublin. Great find alec keep it up👍
Alec you gave us quite a scare. Those rotten floors are the worst. Glad your fast on your feet and did not fall through. Always good to see you and go on explores with you and your mates. Take Care, Be Well & Stay Safe. Until the next one…🤙🏻😊
Hey Alec, love the craphole you explored. Bit scary when your foot went through the floor. Please be careful. Must have been real nice in its day. Thanks for the busted explore and you and your mates stay safe.
It’s been a lovely place in its day. Rather dangerous building now. Excellent filming. Great photos as always and well done to the lass for her determination. You all took care of her though.
I remember working in that place when it was a bingo hall. Those seats in the balcony were there then and that was about 25 yrs ago. Interesting to see what it ended up like before it was demolished
Used to go there when I was a lad, got a few lumbers in there. The carpets were always sticky and it was never a ‘premium’ night club. Obviously as you can see it used to be a cinema - the BB cinema, then became a bingo hall in the 70’s and became Babylon night club in the late 90’s. It’s been demolished now and is just a patch of grass.
OMG pull up bumpin easy E , you guys are HilariouS ,Thanksss Craig 😆 . Great video, Must have been a beautiful disco once , I could almost hear Egyptian lover. Careful of squishy floors. Glad you all made it 🙌
wow so many memories... £1 for 2 bottles red square or bicardi breezer. Dancing on that stage , the 3 bars, Dont remember the upstairs was ever open or used when it was babylon
Had a few mad nights in there in the 90s lol. The upper floors were condemned back then although somehow the DJ booth was up there. They used to also have a couple of bouncers up there and one on the stage they could pretty much see everything. For a club, this place had brilliant lighting, although I remember one night there was a power cut and the whole place just went into blackness. Took a while to get everyone out. Think it closed around 2001/2002.
Never have i seen so much left in an abandonded pub so much money in items left, Even knives on the kitchen wall, Great Explore 😂Glad you all came out alive safetly
i went in here last week after seeing the window was open. Being from Greenock I've been wanting in here for years. glad I got too before it gets flattened soon.
Thanks for the great video.. that place was once a beautiful auditorium. It looks dodgy as fuck now, so glad that nobody fell all the way through the floor
hi alec dont know if you already went to this place but there is an abandoned bingo hall called the hippodrome in scotland you might wanna check out if it hasnt been knocked down yet let me know if you find it👍
used to frequent here alot back In the day. was an excellent venue man. Was massive but it died o death for some reason. shame, cracking building as well. Fun fact, the nightclub scene in the movie Sweet 16 with Martin Compston when he was a teen was filmed in this club.
I know this place! My parents and grandparents used to talk about this place being a nightclub and a cinema a long long time ago. So strange seeing these parts of the place that you always walk past and only ever see the remains from the outside trying to imagine what it was like before. Cool to see :)
Shhhh! TH-cam urban exploring etiquette dictates that you do not give away the location. You will notice on urbex channels that the explorers rarely reveal where they are. It helps to reduce instances of those who wish to destroy abandoned places finding new places to vandalise.
One thing I love about your exploring You go by what I always say to people "Take Nothing but Photographs and Leave nothing but Footprints" I say it to more Fishermen cause I gate the young people that go out and leave trash and fishing line and some will catch fish and just throw them on the bank and let them die as they walk away
Most definitely not one of your better explores, this place is pretty close to demolition, however I take it has been quite a grand cinema/theatre in it's time.
When did it close down ? There is a vinyl there saying 2001 but my the look of the damage of everything coming down it looks like it closed way before 2001.
LOL THE LASS WITH THE SHORT LEGS GOTTA BOOST AND THEN HER AND HER MAN HAVING A DOMESTIC 🤣🤣 YOU DEFINITELY NEED A SHORTS CHANGE ON THIS ONE , I CRINGED WHEN YOU PUT YOUR FOOT THROUGH , THAT ONE HAS TO BE THE MOST DESTROYED AND DANGEROUS YOU'VE BEEN ON AL , THAT WAS IN GLASGOW RIGHT , HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH FROM AROUND THERE , ISN'T THERE MORE HISTORICAL PLACES TO SEE N EXPLORE THERE , EVERYONE ELSE SEEMS TO SHOW EDINBURG , WELL TAKE CARE BROTHER AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY FROM THE SNOWMAN ☃️🎄☃️🎄🎅

I was hoping this place could be saved. After seeing inside it there's no hope, it's gubbed. I went there a few times as a youngster but it was too busy and the music was pish (for this old rocker anyway)

Was dieing for you to hone in on they beers lol

Was a great nightclub, used to be a bingo hall and before that it was a Picture hall.
Still looks like the safest place to be in Greenock mind you.
When did this operate as a nightclub?
Keen to see how many years its took to get in that state
Thanks for the great video.. that place was once a beautiful auditorium. It looks dodgy as fuck now, so glad that nobody fell all the way through the floor
hi alec dont know if you already went to this place but there is an abandoned bingo hall called the hippodrome in scotland you might wanna check out if it hasnt been knocked down yet let me know if you find it👍
Great video guys, i think this place is being renovated now?
Demolished
So many memories in that place early 2000s 💊
Ohhh good explore lads... cant belive they just left the rcf subs speakers in there worth a few quid each lol
Is this in Aberdeen or where also in Aberdeen there is a place called Woolmanhill I been I could take u there
Ita not Aberdeen no its actually in Greenock and has now been demolished
Using this video for photos for my college art brief cause I can’t get in here on my own lol

Good explore looks like a good farm and the place will just crumble
Very nice structure for going to waste.
Ive been looking for a way to get into there for years and your telling me i never noticed the open fucking window outside
It has now been demolished so nice seeing inside it before it came down.
Yeah glad i got to explore it before it was gone for good, thanks for watching
Anyone noticed the girl drops something out her bag
That's the old mecca bingo hall in greenock ain't it
No but thats next on the list lol
Them rcf speakers are worth a bit of money and I bet there still work there lights if could get them down too are probably still good

Alec this looks like a cinema’
Former nightclub
Was a cinema then bingo hall then nightclub
@@cossiebhoy1 I remember it as a bingo hall back in the 80's.
it was called the BB cinema and it was plush place with good movies
Hi Alec !😂🤣😂Can I have some of what your friends on!😂😂🤣
haha
Is this the metro ??
It's just a shame urbex wasn't a "thing" when the old Apollo was still standing. I'd loved to have saw inside it.
oh no, what did your friend drop on the sidewalk at 5:08 it looks like a card or something. hope it was nothing important!
She doesn't know so couldn't of been that important lol
I like old and abonded places
Put that TORCH ON
Is this in Ayr ??
Greenock, its been demolished now
Oddly enough that’s what I thought - it had the same themed interior and furniture as a certain former nightclub in Ayr.
Used to go here every weekend loved the place.
Where is it
@@bigteddy66 It's in greenock
I worked there between March 1999-May 2001
That's awesome, this building has now been demolished
Gid video ma man
Cheers buddy
Just slide down the wall... you'll land on your feet 😊😆😆😅
Sticky floors n knifes was a great place but
Most definitely not one of your better explores, this place is pretty close to demolition, however I take it has been quite a grand cinema/theatre in it's time.
Gostei de ver que vcs são uma equipe unida parabéns por ter arrumado uma escada para ela
