Nice one Arthur, a great find That's one hell of a cardie our Tom is wearing... Villain Probably not something Frank Ross would wear, nor Tom's slightly poncy rhythms.

Out, was indeed a brilliant series. You really find some great stuff, Arthur. I love the TV Times pieces, you put up. My mother got the TV Times every week when I was a kid, and I used to read it myself cover to cover. Great days. Keep it up Arthur Charles.

Thanks Charles, glad that you & Steve & others are enjoying them. I used to enjoy getting the Christmas TV & Radio Times & going through the listings seeing what would be on. That tradition stopped in about the mid 90's when tv started to go downhill.

That tradition stopped in about the mid 90's when tv started to go downhill. I used to do the same Arthur and then get thoroughly depressed when it got to Dec 31st and I'd look back and think just a few short days ago I had all of that lovely TV to look forward too, another reason why I hate New Years Eve

Nice one Arthur and I re-watched Out last week and still a very, very good piece of television after my 110th viewing. Kind of noticed a few of the locations which may be worth checking out. I think Frank’s house is/was (?) on Elm Park/off Calverdale Road in Tulse Hill. Calverdale Road is clearly seen in the episode ‘The Moment He Opened His Envelope’. The Mann Egerton car dealers/Tony McGrath’s flat is 120 Wimbledon Hill Road in Wimbledon Village and has been re-developed in the last few years. However the office opposite where Ross’s photographer friend Steve is taking pictures from is still there/the Wimbledon Village Natwest bank. Chris Cottle’s flat/John Pavey’s flat seems to be the same building and might be nearby to Hillcrest Road in Purley (Croydon) as Pavey hijacks the Cortina/VHK470S in Hillcrest Road after losing his police pursuers in a chase through nearby Roundshaw Open Space. The ‘shop’ McGrath and Pavey use and where they encounter and Ross is on Streatham High Road – mentioned on the commentary. The Rimmer/Bryce meet in the final episode was Chelsea Docks and now seems to be roughly Thames Avenue in the Chelsea Harbour development. The Rank Hovis Mill opposite in Battersea is seen too and Lots Road also features a little bit later when Bryce falls into Ross’s trap of telephoning Hallam about McGrath. Electric Avenue and Brixton Market I think also feature in a few scenes too. There's probably loads more locations but these seem to be the only definitive ones I can ID at the moment. I hope to check these locations at some point soon – can’t right now and need to sus’ out a few of these area’s out too but interesting Euston stayed faithful to Trevor Preston’s South London settings here rather than the more Hammersmith-centric locations used in The Sweeney. I still think some form of follow up series featuring Ross/McGrath could've been a possibility but I suppose the suspense of not knowing what happens to Ross, McGrath and others after the final episode is interesting too and doesn't give it a cosy ending many other series tend to have.

TV Times article about John Junkin, note the ornament he's holding & how it's described.

TV Times article about John Junkin, note the ornament he's holding & how it's described. John seems to have been a very contented guy at this stage in his life Arthur. I've just read up a bit on him and discovered that he did get married, a few years after this piece appeared. He was always popping up in various series, in those days. Charles.
