Looking at picture 2 it could be Magazine Lane looking from the Mags pub towards Vale Park.

Good try! It does look similar, but the walls are different, Magazine Lane has Sandstone Block walls, and Magnet looks like random brick (or certainly brick size). Also the houses are further back on Magnet.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

You are right hoseman. It's a great film. Yes it's corny in a way, but still a delight. Great to see a lot of familiar places. Sadly a lot has been swept away in the name of "progress". The ride on the Overhead, the ferry departing the New Brighton stage, the terraced houses in Liverpool. To repeat - a delight!
