      e suis content que la vidéo rappelle de bons souvenirs, Oui, il y a eu beaucoup de changements à Hastings, notre charmante jetée a pris feu, nous avons une nouvelle jetée mais rien de tel que l'ancien et beaucoup de grands magasins nommés ont fermé . Merci pour votre commentaire.

    The original structure looked like it used a lot more iron, whereas the refurb seems like exclusively wooden frames and facades. SO much wood. Everything, wood.
    I'd like to see some 90's footage when it still had the coin-op arcade machines and Quasar. I suppose VHS cameras were still too bulky and expensive then. Does anyone know where Quasar (which became a nightclub) was actually located? I can't tell if it was above the ballroom or in the upper section in front of it. Thanks for the upload

      That is a pity it would be fascinating to see the original arcade machines on the pier! I believe the quasar bit was just in front of the ballroom, there is actually a brief bit of footage of it in a Hastings documentary from the 90s! And you can see a brief glimpse of an arcade on the pier in the video for oh labour by Dollar which was all filmed at the pier in the 1980s

      Quazar was above the bar area of the ball room. many an afternoon in there spent saving the universe.....I have said if i ever win "Big" on the lottery I will buy the pier and build a ball room back on the end of it.....the Plank of wood it currently is although "looks" pretty to posh people has no chance of making any money to make sure it is there for the future....yes with me in charge you aill get bands back on the pier...Bexhill college parties will return and most importantly......the 10p drop machines! I would also set it up as a centre for performing arts with practice rooms/recording studios on there for young upcoming Hastings talent

      Shame they destroyed the Art Deco entrance, not that it matters now anyway. I reckon they should design and build another Ballroom at the end of the pier.
