Once, #London's market pubs were lively & full of character. Now, they like the market trade itself, seem to be but a memory that will soon disappear along with the hero's who made their legacy a reality.

Scene from the film 'Villain' (1971) that was filmed in The Assembly House, 292-294 Kentish Town Road, #KentishTown, #London

Take a look at the stunning interior of the Assembly House (@assemblyNW5) and the wonderful vibe depicted in this short clip. Though the film may raise an essence of nostalgia to some, the pubs appearance and ambiance will connect with many more.

"Villain is a 1971 British gangster film directed by Michael Tuchner and starring #RichardBurton, Ian McShane, #NigelDavenport and Donald Sinden. It is based on #JamesBarlow's 1968 novel The Burden of Proof. Villain was director #MichaelTuchner's first feature film after directing in television

As with other films of Villain's same era and genre (#GetCarter (1971), A #ClockworkOrange (1971) and Performance (1970), for example), some of the violence is quite graphic, especially during the heist scene, and it foreshadows several 1970s cop TV shows such as The Sweeney, Target and Special Branch."

#Kilburn pub The Falcon bought by #Brent Council for £3.25m

Another pub destined to become flats, this time the council is directly responsible. This is DISGUSTING! Our government should buy pubs to save them, not to speed their death!
