THE cast of 90s sitcom The Brittas Empire will reunite to celebrate the opening of the revamped Ringwood Health and Leisure centre next week.

The eleven-week refurbishment has seen improvements to the centre, as well as the introduction of new equipment and facilities.

Improvements include new lighting, better air conditioning, a dedicated indoor cycling studio with the ability to provide virtual classes, an extended gym with new equipment, and general updating to the centre.

As part of the opening events the cast of the popular 1990s sitcom based in a leisure centre The Brittas Empire, which was largely filmed at Ringwood Health and Leisure Centre, will reunite at the centre more than 20 years after the sitcom ended.

Brittas Empire star Chris Barrie heads the list of cast members who will be getting back together to re-open Ringwood Health and Leisure Centre, where all the show’s exterior and swimming pool scenes were shot.

The reunion takes place on Monday (October 2). Fans are invited to attend between 4pm–5.30pm, and there is an invitation-only event for centre members from 5.30pm–7pm.

The centre will re-open for general use at 6.30am on Tuesday (October 3).
