An item from the episode looking at the biggest TV hits of 1962. Brian Blessed is interviewed in a mock-up of the prop car they used for the original studio recordings (27.4.92)
Brian Blessed would have a mighty fine recollection of the vehicles used during the filming during this production. I guess it puts paid to the erroneous belief by some that they'd only ever used the Mark 3 Zephyrs (and not the Mark 2 Zephyr as depicted here) during production. This is probably due to the Mark 3 inclusion during the opening credits.
Don't think I've ever seen Brian Blessed talk so quietly!
Z cars oooh i did love that show and loved Brian blessed hated it when he left 😊

Why is Brian Blessed wearing a Police uniform?
He started in Z Cars
Watch Z Cars and it will explain everything.
He played PC Fancy Smith in the early years of Z Cars.
Belting tune. It was a real pity when they had to change it because it was associated with Protestants in Northern Ireland during the Troubles.
How? Because most police in the Royal Ulster Constabulary were Protestants in Northern Ireland.
