Motherland House - what are these in Julia’s kitchen? (Pic attached)

[QuentininQuarantino]

Those three silver boxes on the wall at the back on the left. They don’t look like cupboards. I’ve never seen anything like them before, does anyone know what they are?

You can only see two of them in the picture but there’s a third out of frame!

I thought they were coffee bean dispensers

Wow! But three? And it’s a little kitchen with seemingly just one cupboard - where does she keep all the stuff?

Place marking!

I wondered too.

Sorry to hijack but is this a new series? I love Motherland!

Series 3!! But maybe they were there in series 1&2 too...!

Yes! I paused it to try to work it out. It makes her kitchen look like the engine room of a submarine or something

I wondered if it was a period house thing? I haven’t been in many houses that age and size before!

I thought it was wall mounted cereal dispensers

I had to turn this off this week. I just found her too annoying. Shame as I like a lot of the characters.

I also wondered this.

Agree she's annoying but I love the other people on it.

I would guess at cereal dispensers as well, although those are usually see through so you can see what you're dispensing. Could be some sort of coffee grinder but don't think anyone would have three. Or maybe some sort of artwork or a cupboard with a design on? I'll have to watch the episode again.

Surely they are speakers?

Cereal dispenser I reckon, they looked transparent in another shot

I thought cereal dispensers too

But they’re enormous to be cereal dispensers!? They’re the height of a kitchen cupboard! They do look a bit dispensery at the bottom. The house must be a location house - maybe it has a website with clearer pics!!

I wondered ,too. Enormous ugly metal things.

Speakers? I have no idea.

I thought maybe they were coffee bean dispensers, but they do seem odd.

Great thread, I'll really like her house.

A slightly clearer picture of them but I'm still clueless.

The light that matches the one the other side of the cooker hood is plonked on top of the mystery boxes. It gets bizarrer!

A slightly clearer picture of them but I'm still clueless.

In the first picture they've removed the light fitting that is balanced on top in the second picture so clearly it was obstructing something or other 🤔

They are quite shallow but rather high up to be useful.
