After many years I am just re-watching series 1 of the BBC wartime drama "Secret Army", the one which resulted in the spin off comedy "Allo Allo"
Set and partly filmed in Belgium and according to IMDB also filmed around Norfolk in UK and I am sure I read somewhere in the past some scenes were filmed on the Nene Valley Railway.
However, in episode 11 "A Question of Loyalty" a member of the Luftwaffe who has assumed the identity of a downed RAF serviceman is delivered to a boarded up signal box of distinctly GWR appearance with a GWR lower quadrant signal nearby.
The signal box in boarded up in a none too convincing manner and its name board removed.
Obviously said imposter comes to a sad end in the signal box.
It isn't a location I recognise on any GWR preserved line I have visited - just curious if anyone knows where it was filmed?
