Filming in Accrington

Ever watch that wonderful house auction programme called HOMES UNDER THE HAMMER. They were in Accrington today, around the Christ Church area. Will be nice to see a local connection on TV in a few months time. The presenter Martin Roberts, can be seen at the far right of the photo.

If there's a house up for grabs round there, can't see it going for much. There's some woman who lives round that way who's forever going around taking photographs. Really lowers the tone of the place!

It's a good programme. It is interesting to see some of the transformations that are achieved with properties that, at first sight, seem past it.

It's very satisfying to watch knackered old buildings transformed into something wonderful again. Whenever my wife is off work we tend to watch this over late breakfast, a cracking little programme.

If they come back in a few months time, they could show how to turn a thriving market hall into an empty shell......

Do you remember that idiot who bought the Regal Cinema-Bingo hall in Bacup for £181,000 and lost it all?

Thanks . I got a PM and there is a thread on Nature of the Beast .
I've had a quick glance through it and it looks like it was only made for Channel 4 , and all copies seem to have been chewed up or worn out .
