  • The glorious 1970s utopia that is the Anderston Centre, lovingly captured in the 1985 movie Restless Natives. Starring the 'travelator' which connected the shopping centre to the bus station!

    My favourite ever film. Everything about it is so utterly magical and the soundtrack couldn’t be more perfect.

    Im just watching the film and it was the esculator that reminded me of Anderson bus station and so it is, i remember Comet being there and using the esculator, prefer the train to the bus and had thought it had closed long long ago Terri Lally was very nice back then.

    Gutted that they went to Glasgow for this. There was a Menzies and an escalator in St Andrews Sq bus station (I worked at RBS above the station for a wee while). Anyway, I'm burstin. Come back ya fanny!

      Fake Princes St sign. I was sure this was filmed in St Andrews until now. I think the Menzies at St A was a wee bit bigger. What a film though. We can go into hiding... in Penicuik.

    Lots of the Anderson centre is frozen in time. I put together a Restless natives then and now video (search youtube, it should come up) and while working on it took these pics; www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=32631124%40N03&sort=date-taken-desc&text=utopia&view_all=1

      It certainly has an interesting vibe. When I was there it was completely deserted which was really weird as it was the middle of a working day.

    Where was that travelator thats in the film. I'm google mapping round that area to see if i can recognise any of it from the film.

      If *think* the travelator went up to the two gaps you can now see below the flats. Trees hide it in most Google Maps images, but in this link look at the fences up on the first floor in the distance: www.google.co.uk/maps/@55.8599582,-4.2651337,3a,37.5y,243.48h,90.24t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sKkvobCcNLekjUfSWiDFp6A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656
