thanks for doing this

Lovely work. I barely recognise certain areas of London anymore, it’s changed so much and so fast.

I wouldn't be filming for long outside the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit , you might make the inhabitants nervous . 😁Thanks for putting this up , and for your research , very interesting comparing the locations . The Sweeney was one of the very best series ever made , i just wish they had made more . Even now when i watch repeats , i still get a buzz , it's still brilliant .

The Sweeney was and still is the top of the tree when it comes to one hour of entertainment and where the bad guys got a good old slap for being bad boys. In the days when the villains were treated as such and the good guys were treated more decent than they are now.

East Row where I went to school in St Mary’s

I love it, another fantastic video. Great research, many thanks.

I went on a Sweeney Locations Tour on Sunday, I informed at least 3 people of this channel who didn’t know about it, so hopefully you will have some new viewers and an wider appreciation of the time and effort you put in to bring us these videos. Thank-you. 👍🏻

As a 14 year old, I remember dennis waterman was calm ,But John thaw was a chain smoker And they were talking about morecambe and wise,

As the Dr runs across the roof in the background there is my late Father,s taxi, Also as a child i remember some scenes from an episode of The Professionals was filmed near here, And Gordon Jackson Autographed a card for my sisters Birthday , My mother asked him to sign😂😂😂😂😂

The red brick flats are called Whitton, The big tower block is called Blashford , The Robbers jump off the roof ,even though there was a flight of steps at the end of the garage roof,

The milkman established it was early morning, The punch up shows ,The milkman had recently been transferred from the Millwall dairy branch 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I took a lot of photos over Camley St, in the early 1990s. I went there because it was used in a car chase, in the film Robbery. Sadly it was nothing like in the film. It hasn't changed much since 1993, to how it looks in your video.

Nice to see a Fiat 132 @ 10:27

Another fantastic video. Fleet House was an old GPO/BT building as many were back in the 70s and 80s when i worked for BT. its the London i spent my working life in.

Excellent then and now captures more please.

This is the episode where carter in the phone box puts on a Scottish accent with Davie ' the wee baby lol great'

Thanks for another great episode.

Thanks for another great episode.

Brilliant, many thanks for the time and work involved in producing these videos. Are there any other locations that have proved particularly difficult, or yet impossible to locate?,

Another great episode - thanks! As you can see from the comments there are a lot of us who as Sweeney fans love to see the locations then and now. I've lived in London since 2000 and in that time alone it's changed massively.. getting the train in from Richmond to Waterloo daily I can see all the trackside light industrial units in Wandswoth have been turned into flats - in some ways it's remarkable that quite so much that was shpwn in the Sweeney has actually survived!. What is noticeable is how pretty much any form of light industry has disappeared to be replaced by the ubiquitous blocks of flats. I wonder if people were having the same conversations around the turn of the 19th century!

The old bus garage on Middle Row was replaced in 1981 by one about a mile away at Westbourne Park.

Another brilliantly researched, filmed and edited film. Thank you so much 🙏

Another 15 minutes of my life gorn thanks to the wonders of Sweenealogy.

I literally just found your channel this evening and just binged watched all your episodes which I have found to be superb. The production and genuine narration by yourself is outstanding. As a Sweeney fan I often wondered what some of the street scenes filmed back in those 1970's days would look like today and you are answering those questions in every episode. Brilliant stuff and thank you very much...I'm off down the boozer in the Granada after a hard day chasing villains now...Cheers 🍻

Class. The constant evolution of the capital 😂❤

Hi can old when London looked good 😊 Ali Walsall west midlands england junction 10 m6 Walsall churckery

I am fascinated by the minor regular characters, - The Drivers and Tom Daniels

Haskins was also in On The Buses. He played a manager at the Bus Company and Blakey’s boss.

Another brilliant episode. Your work is much appreciated, and many thanks for pointing out the Leone reference in the framing of 'Hard Men'. As a fan of the great Italian director I must admit I'd never noticed the similarity before so top job there!

Thanks for all your hard work. 👍👍

Superb video. Great commentary. Nostalgia hit from a bygone era....a Better Britain in my opinion.

Fantastic video really enjoyed all your hard work 👍

Love these videos, thank you for your hard work putting these together.

Excellent.. been to a few of these thanks to you :)

Thanks yet again... wonderful, I agree with your comments re London and the feel of the place, the buildings etc... I think I preferred it back then, everywhere is so beautified and cluttered now

Great stuff, thanks.

Fantastic! The canal at Ladbroke Grove next to Sainsbury's was also used as a filming location in The Professionals episode "Blind Run"😊

Like most things - ruined by immigration!

Fantastic work ✨

Good stuff 👍

The Golborne Road scenes bring back memories. My aunt & uncle ran the newsagents there, and some filming was done out the window of their living room on the first floor. They even used their bedroom on the floor above as Thaw's dressing room for the day. (My aunt kind of gave guided tours of these rooms to interested mums whenever my cousins had birthday parties.) And the doorway Thaw emerges from is the front door to their house next to the shop.

I absolutely loved and still love The Sweeney. Thank you so very much for posting. I'm turning 66 this year and for me, Jack Regan and George Carter were real Police officers. I can't believe I said that out loud...🙈🤪 Please don't send the men in white coats for me...😁

As odd as it sounds, we could do with a bit of dereliction in our cities, it gives us an idea of the past, and give it character. The same goes for all the "filling" councils like to do, it's almost as if they want our cities to be overbearing, dark and uninviting, and the desire to fill the cities with trees and shrubs makes it seem worse.

Those were the good old days

Just joined your channel, lots of memories there from watching this classic series when i was a young boy living in north London Islington at the time. The Venus café is also featured in a Madness video from January 1981 the return of the loss palmers 7

Nice work. Makes me cringe now when The Sweeney is on, neutered, at 7:45 in the mornings. Used to go to school in the morning after the latest episode and we'd all shout SWEENEY and have a fight ! Bring back London town. By the way, some of the old, wrecked plots were still remnants of the war. I totally agree with your sentiments about how those places looked and felt.

Venus Cafe was also used in the Madness video, Return of the Los Palmas 7

There's a real reflective sadness to the music of the closing credits. Can't put my finger on it, but it's kind of a crime doesn't pay vibe, but Reagan and Carter still have to deal with the brutal futility of it all. It's phenomenal.

Brilliant, keep em coming. Tasty geezers...

My favourite bit from this episode, is where Regan says to Freith, "I've just about had enough of this you scottish git".
