Auf Wiedersehen Pet facts

[Ceverton]

- The German site they worked on in series 1 is now the actual set of Eastenders
- Denise Welch was an incredible wad in her one off appearance in series 2
- Probably well known but there is a scene in series 2 where Bomber picks up Wayne and carries him out of a casino, this was actually a body double for Wayne as the late Gary Holton died during filming of series 2.
- Series 3 and 4 were not that bad
- Jimmy Nail can be seen crying in an episode of series 2 when talking about Wayne (Gary Holton died just a week earlier)
- Oz's flat in series 1 is actually in Hammersmith

I played the piano for the ceremony when Ian La Frenais was given the Freedom of the Borough of North Tyneside. (Not sure this is the sort of fact you're after, mind!).

Eastenders set is in Düsseldorf.

The building site was filmed over here. They even shipped German tools over

I didn’t know the set was over here, that’s my something new for the day, it would be canny if Eastenders was filmed in Germany mind, the set would probably be shut at the moment.

It was a mixture. The longer shots were in Germany, the rest were at Elstree.

Denise Welch once gave me a second look in the Metrocentre, not sure if that's a good or bad thing though.

Nope just walking along at the junction to where yellow meets red.

 

[Cheesy Feet]

We were in a car going to watch the lads at Highbury early 90’s..we saw Ally Fraser walking down the street..got the windows down and started shouting ‘how Ally’..’leave Dennis alone you bastard’..he never reacted like.

I didn't know Ray Winstone appeared in an episode.

Aye, Colin.

Aye, Colin.

I'll have seen him but it just hasn't stuck in my mind, Mr Bronson has.
