It was previously stated on another thread, that premises only have to be assessed for a maximum capacity if they require to have live entertainment. Having seen vast hoards emerging from pubs which have been showing televised sport, I wonder why it is deemed to be unnecessary in this case. Sadly, I think that a serious disaster will have to occur in an overcrowded pub with wide screen television, before the government etc will admit that this probably needs at least the same degree of regulation as live music.
