00:00 So I'm Jodie and I'm Casey. Perfect. So following the recent closure of Prism Nightclub and Eden & Gunworth,
00:06 what do you guys think about the nightlife in Portsmouth? Is there much of a nightlife left?
00:10 I think it's already been quite lacking but I think with these two closing down as well it's
00:14 even more dire than it already was. I think it's probably definitely going to get a lot busier in
00:18 Astoria but I think a lot of people might, well I think Astoria is probably the most popular one
00:24 anyway but I think maybe less people might start going out to avoid the busy car. Yeah definitely.
00:29 My name's Finn. Jimmy. Perfect. So following the recent closure of Prism Nightclub and Eden &
00:35 Gunworth, what do you guys think about the nightlife in Portsmouth nowadays?
00:38 Personally I despise clubbing and I always have. I've been to Prism once when it was still open.
00:46 I didn't enjoy it at all and from what my friends say at the moment I get the picture that there's
00:55 still a lot going on still. I think they go to Astoria, Tokyo Joe's just as regularly.
01:01 So yeah generally I don't think it's bothered my friends that much and it hasn't bothered me at all.
01:07 I think there's definitely been a shift from clubbing culture into more pubs and things
01:15 like that especially with honest politicians, one night long. But that could just be as I've
01:21 got older I gravitate more towards those places. Never went to Eden at all, just wasn't my scene.
01:29 Prism was fun but yeah it gets too expensive I think is the main thing. Pricey yeah.
01:37 My name's Caitlin. I'm Charlotte. So following the closure of Prism Nightclub and Eden & Gunworth,
01:43 what do you guys think about nightlife in Portsmouth? Prism was just recently closed down
01:48 I believe and I never went to Prism personally and I've been here since last September. I only
01:54 went there for events where Tom Zanetti and Philly went to perform and that's about it.
02:02 I didn't really go there for club nights so it didn't really affect me too much.
02:06 I don't know about you? No I'm the same. I only really saw it busy when it was the event
02:11 or Sportos was held there as well. Which was a university event. Yeah that was a university event
02:16 so that was about it but I think the story is a lot more popular for nightlife. It would be great
02:22 if there was more options to choose from with in regards to like clubs and also pubs because
02:29 I normally go to pubs or like bars for a night out and I find that there's not many in like the city
02:35 centre of Portsmouth. Like I normally go to South Sea, like Gunworth's quite expensive as well
02:39 because it's quite like a tourist attraction kind of bar type thing so yeah it'd be great if we could
02:46 see more of that in the system in half.
