  • Those familiar with the area may spot some scenes were filmed in Enfield (London, UK) Town Centre.

  • I'm unfamiliar with London generally so am interested if people recognised locations and so on, thank you. Synchronistically, our family nearly moved to Enfield in 1985 (my father was in Ministry of Defence, Royal Ordnance Factories all his career so we moved to where his work was, in this case it would've been this site en.m.wikipedia.org/.../Royal_Small_Arms_Factory ) but we moved to Preston, Lancashire instead and he worked at the Chorley (Euxton) ROF site instead. My parents lived in London area in the  1960s and he worked for MoD at The Admiralty at first. Before that, having moved down there from The North he worked at Hamleys toy store for 6 months and liked hanging around Ronnie Scott's jazz club etc as far as I know. I would like to get to know London and the southwest generally more (retrace their steps a bit) but haven't so far.
