Blockbuster shops survive latest chop
Blockbuster locations in Luton, Dunstable and Leighton Buzzard will remain open despite the video rental giant announcing the closure of a further 164 stores.
A spokesman confirmed that the shops in Marsh Road, Luton, West Street, Dunstable, and Waterborne Walk, Leighton Buzzard had survived the latest re-structuring since Blockbuster went into administration last month.
The company had 528 locations across the country before appointing administrators Deloitte in January – that total now stands at 204.
