The old RT has gone. Some of the real characters from way back are no longer with us sad to say.

Other characters are not missed so much because of their attitude but were still a part of the RT and if they were not getting at you in particular, were viewed with some amusement.

I suppose times and people change along with what they get up to?

The RT was a meeting place where things could be discussed, points for and against a particular topic or point of view raged back and forth in a "discussive way" until some of those with no idea how to discuss became aggressive and/or abusive, cue end of discussion.

Some old pubs have gone with many reasons as to why but what's the reason for the demise of the RT?
