SAD LOCATION NEWS

Following on from the exciting location news from July 2012, August 2012 brings some sadder news to The Unmutual Website.

One of the most memorable sequences in "Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling" is the scene involving the Paternoster lift, where Number Six (in the guise of Nigel Stock) visits his superiors, which was filmed at the former GEC building in Borehamwood.

Sadly, the former-GEC building which housed the lift and corridors has now been totally demolished (see image, left) following the lift being boarded up in 2001.

Other worrying news is that Beachy Head lighthouse (which features in both "Many Happy Returns" and "The Girl Who Was Death") may be losing its iconic red and white stripes. Click HERE for more details on the campaign, which includes input from comedian Eddie Izard, to stop this happening.

For more details regarding both these locations, visit the locations guide.
