Since Filming:
The Randall and Hopkirk offices are long gone, demolished to
make way for a new development. The grass verge seen in the early
1990s photograph represents the approximate point at which the
offices stood. This too has also now gone and Jeff and Marty's
offices are now under concrete, following the building in 1996 of
a new shopping centre.
