Happy birthday Michel Brandon 🍻 The 3rd episode LUCKY STREAK was partially filmed in Chelsea, this one on Royal Hospital Road. Very close to "Foxtrot Oscar" - more about it in "That's All I'm Sayin' " 👌

The Lymon character preferred not to own cars ;) This time a suitable motor to borrow was Capri, which he found on Burney Street , SE10 (Greenwich). Episode #20 ' THE BOGEYMAN '. (ps. Nick Brimble turned 80 a couple of months ago, congrats !)

HBD Michael Brandon 🍻 40 years ago it all started and this was one of the very first scenes together ❤️ Filmed in the riverside part of the Mayflower Pub SE16. From the 2nd episode "THE SQUEEZE" which indeed was filmed first. ("now" pic taken in 2018)

Greenwich Peninsula, part 7 20th episode "THE BOGEYMAN": The very brilliant car stunt where Lymon's red Pontiac jumps from the ramp and rolls spectacularly was shot near the two East Greenwich's gasholders of which in 2018 ("now"pic) was one left, now both gutted :(

Greenwich Peninsula, part five. The opening scenes from the 21st episode "THE BURNING PART 1" were filmed towards south approximately from where O2 is. The "now" picture I took from the cable car in 2018. A lot has been built since then.
