Sound of a tram going over the viaduct on tonight's second episode for probably the first time since 2010, as the police were talking to Kevin & Gary, have they been reading the discussion on here I wonder?

IIRC, when Alf turned on the TV for the Queen’s speech we heard the David Dundas ITV 1989 ident music, even though Granada never used the package.


I suppose that music shouted out “ITV” to most viewers, more than a Granada jingle would have done.

I remember occasionally hearing Granada announcers into News at Ten in a few 70s/80s episodes.

I'd actually be quite interested to see a recording of that episode from the original broadcast to see exactly how it looked when they went in and out of the queen's speech, I only ever saw the G+ broadcast.

I've tried searching Youtube for this episode from time to time but i don't get much joy.

Do you get the feeling they might have edited out and/or refilmed some scenes featuring Todd, as it seems strange he wouldn't appear at all in both episodes and then turn up at the end.

Obviously the scene at the end couldn't really be delivered by anyone else, so they had to leave that one in.

The scene with Fiz suddenly finding out that Cilla was ill and that she’d have to leave for a few weeks seemed crow-barred in to explain her absence to appear on I’m A Celeb, especially while the storyline involving her and Tyrone’s kids was still building.

They did the same with Sharif, didn't they?

One thing I've noticed watching the ITV3 episodes with the end credits is that even though the scrolling credits are electronically generated, on some episodes the static credits at the end still look like they're on physical cards- it seems to vary from episode to episode. Same on whether the Granada endcap is electronic or a physical caption.

Also the End Of Part One/Part Two captions seemed to go back to being actual captions in Autumn 86 after several months of being electronically generated.

A few weeks ago someone mentioned Gail having some co-op carrier bags in an episode- watching some 1972 episodes on DVD there's several Co-op own brand products visible in the corner shop!

So I'm guessing that wasn't really Todd driving the car, and his voice was edited in from a previous episode

I would agree. It was all rather sudden and odd - she was after all talking to Geraldine a moment before.
