THE big screens on Great Yarmouth seafront will not be showing tomorrow’s Royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Neither of the two screens- at Sealife Gardens and Anchor Gardens- will be showing live coverage due to technical problems.
One of the screens is not working, while a third screen that used to stand in Market Place has not returned since being taken away five years ago to be repaired after a power surge put it out of action.
Further problems were caused by an insurer’s decision not to pay out for the �200,000 screen, which was dogged by problems after Yarmouth Borough Council was forced to carry out quick risk assessments to meet a deadline for �16m of InteGreat funding to be spent.
