That shot of Wimbledon Theatre took me back to the pantomimes seen there as a child in the 1950's! Also took me back to 1955 and my 11+ held in Pelham Road School!

Featured heavily in my youth. Wimbledon Theatre, plenty of curry houses, town hall, police station but the real joy is up the hill to the village and the great pubs, Crooked Billet. Hand in Hand and a few others.

I moved there a long time afterwards, but still recognised some of the buildings ..... then I realised that the year that I moved there is closer to when that film was shot, than it is to today - and the difference _isn't_ close! Now I feel old. :(

Anyone remember the stuffed large terrier dog (real) in a glass case on the number 6 or 7 platform at the station (with a slot to collect money for children's homes I think). Was taken away mid '80's I think.
