I Imagine Minder locations would be pretty similar as it was the same production company. Euston Films.

Love the channel mate, and always looking forward to the next episode!

Brilliant work Sir, thoroughly enjoy these. Amazing research and attention to detail and the comedic narration is perfect!

Is there any chance that someone like Transport for London would give you a bloody great financial grant to digitally recreate 1970's London? You are doing a public service. I've no idea how you figure out some of the locations. Well done!

interesting you mention the episode contact breaker, as the opening of that episode where Reagan gets out of his car and goes into the bank was filmed in Hatch End, quite a distance from the usual locations.

Still love watching the sweeney today interesting locations, thanks for uploading

What a fantastic piece of work. The quality of research, filming and post-production consistent throughout.

Used to have a massive crush on Rachel Davies (Tina ) ..beautiful lady

Another excellent vid. Please do keep them coming. 👍🏻

There was a nearly perfect shot by shot remake of opening credits of the American 1980s private eye series that took place in San Diego, California; "Simon & Simon" (Starring Gerald McRaney and Jameson Parker) with Mad Men star Jon Hamm and Parks & Rec star Adam Scott. Has a kickass opening song. It is spectacular.

You are truly a scholar. This kind of research should really be taken seriously - stuff like the Sweeney, Minder, etal, provides the equivalent of Google Street View for Seventies and Eighties London.

"Who are you?" "We're the sweeney son, and we haven't had our dinner."

Makes me very nostalgic for the London i lived in back in the seventies,i avoid going there now,enough said !!!.

Love this channel - when London was London. Say no more!

Look Forward to part 2 I was about 11 when i saw them filming at Bridgade house Parson Green my school St marks lower school was down the road from that pub some one came running in the play ground the Sweeney filming down the road and a couple of us went running down the road happy days 🙂

Steady on, Boysey! 😂 @6:43

Thanks once again. Really enjoyed this

Another great video, worked in w10 and w11 in the 90s and the Walmer castle was.one of my customers. The mews next door to it is where terry mccann chases one of the thugs in the minder episode 'whose wife is it anyway '. ,and Ledbury road is where alan and Jim had their antique shop.

06:57 I did the walk including the limp 😆

So well put together and top notch entertainment. Many thanks and look forward to many more.

Fascinating documentary with an eloquent commentary.

There were a lot of scenes in more rural areas too, can you investigate these?

❤1st time viewer, brilliant, thank you 🙏 ❤

Gentrification has ruined the character of NHG.

Great job!, I remember the title sequence has the underpass of the west way flyover just by little venice

Excellent, loved the shots of Ledbury Road, and Briggs Antiques, opposite the Walmer Pub. Used to know that road well, back in the 70s

Wow! LTN in the 70's. 😂

Shame one cannot park in London even for a day out with the family. You have to pay congestion charge, ULEZ and parking chargers. What a shame.

@Sweenealogy, Nice Video mate. You sound young. Very young. Surely you cannot remember the 70s. I guess you remember bits of 80s and 90s. Like I said, you sound young.

20 million for a 1 bed flat there now. 10 grand a year to park your car.

Just discovered this channel and its made my day, week, month!! 😂😂 Thanks for the effort innputting these videos together, your a true gentleman and geyser!

Addictive viewing. Superb work. Thanks

The Sweeney was our Streets of SF...Dirty Harry...and all the rest...the UK did it better,the US commercialized it better.

Mad,beautifully...obsessive,aka research.

Thought this would be naff but really enjoyed it, a lot of work has gone into this, will watch the others.

Very entertaining and informative, nicely done. Everyday life would definitely be more exciting with a constant accompaniment of Sweeney incidental music.

Fantastic video, you put a lot of work into this. The Sweeney was a classic show and the London locations were as much a part of it as Regan, Carter and all the villains. Great to see so much of it hasn't changed much.

Would be nice to see a similar thing for Minder.

Another great video with locations near to where I live , I loved the 70’s… Cheers 👍

I'm so glad I was around when the sweeney was first broadcast back in the 1970s the show was a more realistic and gritty representation of policing in Britain in those days. And it's still my favourite cop show.

Brilliant work. First vid I've seen of yours and will be watching the others with great interest my friend. This was my manor as a kid and I still walk around the area now and again. I miss the open roads, lack of street furniture and the old Routemasters. In short, the freedom... And, as you say, the chances of seeing a bobby on the beat around here these days are miniscule.

When are you doing Minder and the Professionals?😊

Consul GT?

Absolutely fantastic , this video especially as I live in Powis Square and I go in the Walmer Castle pub….. Cheers…. 🍺

Back before immigration destroyed our country. TRIATORS have FCUKING RUIND our lives

What camera did you shoot this with? Interesting to see how consumer gear is on par with professional equipment from the 70s

Thanks again for all your effort in doing these.

I'm sixty years old so i was around when the sweeney was first broadcast so these videos are a great opportunity for me to compare London then and now . Thanks for bringing back so many wonderful memories...
