That's the Trinity Square, multistorey carpark in Gateshead. It was also used in the iconic British gangster film Get Carter. It was demolished in 2010.
@@clarea1801 Trinity Square is a shopping and leisure centre now. The Gateshead Vue cinema is located on the site. I remember the scene from Get Carter when Michael Caine pushed Bryan Moseley from the top of the car park. Moseley went on to play Alf Roberts in Corrie!
Brilliant things about this programme: Not all filmed in the studio, they were in different locations in most episodes. They were always drinking pints. Terry saying "Hell's teeth". Bob's a good guy, but still has a wandering eye, like a real person. These days seems like only bad guys cheat on TV (woman can cheat, but it's always romantic when they do it)
wow watching this makes me think of all the places I used to go to that are now long gone from the 70s. Worcester was a great place to go to for us at 14, all the old army surplus stores and cafes with green beryl wear china. like these two its all gone now.
I know how he feels seeing all his old haunts change. It happens even now. Places I used to hang around when I was younger in the 90s mostly have all gone all new houses built on them etc...
Most of my old schools have gone, and a large chubk of my hometown My heighboyrs used to be friendly and helpful until they died and were replaced by thugs and filth
That's how I feel built new parts on the estate and it all went down hill, all the old ones dying off, people moved but weren't trying to fit in, all took over,
How many young men used to dream about taking to the road with minimum possessions and working their way across the US or Australia only to meet a local girl and settle down to toddlers, take aways and television.
I did it! Met my ex wifey while hitchhiking the south island of NZ,,kids, many takeaways lol and lots of telly…with me on it! Split now but still good friends an two lovely sons, here’s to the road and all who cruise her
Back in 1972 i hitch hiked to Spain, got arrested by th police, picked up by a gay guy who threw me out of his van after i rejected his advances. Hitch hiked to a music festival the sane year and down to Cornwall in 1975. People cante do that now as to many head cases about.
At 3:05 As they drive to Savile Street, I noticed there is a lot of damage to the homes... was the damage caused by English demolition experts clearing the area for new building projects or the Luftwaffe during WWII? Just curious.
Demolition, specifically so-called "slum" clearances. These lasted from the 1950s to the 1970s and I remember the tail end of them in Manchester from when I was a boy. Similar sites there were used to represent bombed out Germany in an episode of the 1970s series "A Family at War".
@@johntomlinson6849 Happy Holidays from The Netherlands! And, Thank you for your reply, Andrew. Do you recommend that series, "A Family at War"? Also, after they cleared the so-called 'slums', did they build those highrises for the poor? Those were God awful things, not really highrises for the poor, more-like highrises for the damned.
@@MrMenefrego1 Hi Jeff, yes, they did build awful houses and flats in their place, most of which have since been demolished and replaced by far better housing. The brutalist architecture of the 1960s is now seen by the so-called great and the good as a disaster, as it was seen by the people who lived in it at the time, including my late grandad. "A Family at War" is a wonderful series but it's deadly serious, not a comedy, and 52 episodes long so needs commitment. A Happy Christmas to you too! (Holidays are for the summer!)
@@johntomlinson6849 Hey Andrew! lol... "Holidays are for the summer!" eh? Not where I come from, Holidays are, for example, Christmas, Washington's B-day, V-J Day, etc. I'm 60 now, so I'm stuck in my old-man ways. But, if I'm ever in England again, I'll only use the term 'Holidays' for summer vacation and not for anything else. Gonna check out that 'A Family at War' series today. Thanks again for the tip, my Brother.
Yeah it's why he worked in a factory, became an electrician and then joined the army... You don't get how he has come to loathe the rat race that's all, he pricks our conscience about work life balance in opposition to Bob's "successful" overworked, stress filled, materialistic lifestyle...

I thought i recognised it. The bloke was pushed off by Carter himself.
Do you know what has replaced it? I'm guessing flats

@@711honved Thanks for letting me know, at least it's somewhere everyone can benefit from
Hideous inhuman brutalist blocks of flats and carparks. Couldn't even last 50 years unlike some older buildings. Not much better has replaced them...

Still brilliant always used to watch this in our house in the 70s
I born in 1974, missed it, but now I'm 48 I love watching this 😂 these probably the best tv now x
This is great Legendary comedy, Loved this when I was a kid
Oh how I wish there were still pubs like this.
What happened to them? (I'm asking you from the Continent, see, where I grew up. Far from England).
Quite! Most have become awful "gastro" pubs, and the rest.
In a BBC studio with a studio audience?
Pubs OK, beer not so much back then.
@@MrNK1964 James Bolam sadly died, they fell out and never spoke for years,😢

That was the height of comedy, not like the crap on the box today.

When I was a child and teenager there were still many WW II bomb sites in urban areas . It was so much the norm that I never noticed.
