00:00Okay then, Barron, how does it feel to see your Beatles artwork go on display at this
00:14three storeys pub then?
00:16It feels great.
00:18It's been a long time coming and I know how much effort the team have put in here at the
00:24three storeys to get the pub finished in itself, but to get the piece on the wall was a big
00:31effort as well.
00:32It's just a testament that the walls here will very well be it to hold the weight in
00:39the piece.
00:40I understand there's also a family connection with the old pub which used to be here?
00:43Yeah, it was called the Three Crowns many decades ago and my grandad on my mother's
00:48side was a regular here in the fifties.
00:51Does that make it mean a bit more than the fact it's on display here where your grandad
00:54used to come?
00:55Yeah, it's special sitting there looking around and to think that he used to put a few pints
01:02away in the Three Crowns, now the three storeys.
01:05I know you're here on the opening night and you saw people looking at your work there
01:09when it was revealed.
01:10I mean, what sort of reaction did it get from people?
01:13Yeah, it was causing a few people to scratch their heads who hadn't seen that type of thing
01:17before.
01:19There was people expecting to see it as well and just to see people can try and get close
01:24to the piece to figure out how it's made and what it's made of because obviously standing
01:29way back it just looks like a high-resolution photograph but when you get close it starts
01:35to pixelate up and it's always good to see people's reactions.
01:38Hoping to get some more on display as well?
01:40Yes, we're planning on bringing Elvis Presley down here, a piece that I'd done some three
01:45years ago was the second piece I did in the collection and it'll be fantastic to see that
01:51on display here and for sale as the Beatles are also for sale, so fingers crossed.
