offers
a
unique
never
before
seen
elevated
artist’s
impression
of
‘Set
Building
#3’
at
Elstree
Studios
back
lot.
Visible
in
the
background
are
the
two
large
bill
boards
starring
our
infamous
Playboy
girl
in episode 8, ‘The Fugitive’.
As
well
as
becoming
an
integral
part
of
the
scene
where
Oz
falls
foul
of
a
tin
of
red
paint,
the
bill
boards
help
to
screen
our
view
of
the
typical
English
residential
terraced
housing
on
‘Welbeck
Close’
throughout
the
series
(position K & image 41 below).
Interestingly,
had
you
lived
on
Welbeck
Close
in
1982/83,
your
rear
windows
and
back
garden
would
have
faced
that
huge
Playboy
billboard
sign!
In
addition
to
providing
the
back
drop
to
many
incidental
scenes,
‘Set
Building
#3’
provides
the
location
for
several
memorable
close-up
scenes
