Blockbuster will close its Dover store after entering administration for the second time in a year, it has been revealed today.

Last week, the DVD and game rental chain announced it would be shutting 72 outlets across the UK - costing more than 450 people their jobs.

Its shop in Dover's Charlton Centre employs five people, but details of when it will close have not yet been revealed.

Another announcement is due within the next week.

Blockbuster's remaining Kent stores in Gravesend, Chatham, Folkestone and Margate will continue to trade as normal while administrators Moorfields Corporate Recovery try to find a buyer.

Joint administrators Simon Thomas and Nick O'Reilly said in a statement: "The decision to close some stores has not been taken lightly, however the remaining stores remain open for business and we are continuing to market the business for sale as a going concern.

"Currently we are offering attractive discounts which are generating additional sales.

"We want to be as open and transparent as possible throughout this process and will hopefully be in a position, within the next seven days, to provide staff and customers with another update very shortly."
