A brilliant episode to end the season with , especially ending up with the
scrap on the bus
- A big tell tale sign of the date of filming was The Royal Wedding poster
on the wall of Arthur s office , so July 1981
-We briefly see the car cleaner fitting the number plates to the Porsche
so this confirms it is the same one seen in The Birdman of Wormwood Scrubs
- As well as numerous cars changing position in the scenes outside the car lot
keep a close eye on the red Mercedes W123 as Terry is running to catch the bus
- it all of a sudden has moved several parking spaces up the road , closer to the bus !
In those days recovery vehicles could run on trade plates - I think this changed with the
introduction of the prefix year letter & age related plates , from August 1983
