A large, busy town centre Wetherspoon's pub with real ales available at all times from up to ten hand-pumps, normally including at least two LocAle beers. The pub’s name reflects the television pioneer, who made his first experimental transmission of a moving image in 1924 in his laboratory over a shop in nearby Queen’s Arcade. Quiz nights are held every Wednesday and occasional “Meet the Brewer” events with local brewers are also popular, along with regular Wetherspoon’s beer festivals. Tap Takeovers take place from time to time as well as one-off charity fundraisers. Cider is Gwynt y Ddraig Black Dragon - not real cider according to CAMRA definitions, but a cider festival is held as well as the regular Wetherspoon beer festivals.
