Nice add. There will be a full series next year apparently. |

Thanks. This may be a pruned version... I've seen references to 98 minutes being the full length, but this PBS version only lasted 80 min not counting credits. ![]() ![]() -- Last edit: 2012-07-05 06:13:46 |

Filmed where? Set when? |
◊ 2012-07-05 00:06 |
Oxford as per the related shows: /movie_92379-Inspector-Morse.html and /movie_874608-Lewis.html |

One location that's definitely not in Oxford is the theatre. It's Richmond Theatre, which has been used for quite a few film and television productions. |

This programme played here just last week. That small grey unknown BMC car was seen whole in one shot as I remember - can't recall though whether it was an A30 or 35. I am sure many would have winced when the women took to the Jaguar (the dark coloured 240?)in the car sales yard with an axe. |

As the 240 is a well known film car, I'd be surprised if it was really damaged. Any shots of the axe moments to work out what really happened? |

Hmm, I didn't see it. Maybe that scene was cut from this version. Mostly glass, so not so bad I guess. Broken windshield, a surprisingly small dent on the front from a blow that also popped up the hood (photo below), broken headlight, and two broken driver's side windows. ![]() |

As things stand the main series has a separate IMDB entry to this pilot movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2701582/ |

I guess I'll follow IMDB's numbering then and continue on a new page: /movie.php?id=2701582 |

Time data added plus an improved Standard Eight picture and the Vauxhall Victor [FB] added. |

![]() Pics replaced with sharper HD caps without the PBS logo. Meanwhile, making a mockery of Sandie's comment above, IMDb has since grouped this pilot with the main series, so it's no longer listed as a standalone TV movie, but as episode 1.00. Just one of the reasons why I'm not a fan of how TV series are presented on IMCDb. Anyway, a bonus gruesome twosome: ![]() ![]() KMD 215B returns a 1964 MG Midget. KTP 685 returns a 1953 MG. |

^ "Gruesome twosome" ![]() |

^ ![]() A "gruesome twosome" is actually just a reference to an old so titled Looney Tune cartoon. I like the sound of it, so I use it for any pair of items. ![]() |

I prefer "Delicious duo". The best match I can find after a rummage in the toy cupboard (Spark Midget, Vanguards MGB)![]() |
