    Watching it now. The smug 'celebs' I've never heard of make me cringe with their moralising. They seem more out of touch than the programmes from the 70's.

    As far as I know there's still a Police Box on Scarborough sea front. It was there up until a couple of years ago, but I haven't checked in a while!

    It shut down a few years back, the two brothers fell out and ended up selling the shop and closing down, though I think one of them now has the Burgess' van back on the Westwood.
