Wam, enjoyed your post, shows I have never heard of, must look them up.
Phil, what series are you referring to there?
Wam, you have reminded, Daziel & Pascoe, although the BBC claimed it was Yorkshire, the city scenes, including Pascoe's trendy apartment was filmed in Birmingham city centre.
Blane, 'By All Means' always shows a scene of a canal, supposedly outside their HQ. Any idea which bit of city canal that is? Constitution Hill area is shown a lot and parts of Digbeth.
Could I remind you good people to sign the petition to reclaim media jobs back to Brum. The West Midlands provides the BBC with 25% of its income, but it only spends 2% of its income in this region. A lot of the skills from TV and radio is disappearing from this area. Here is the link to the petition,
