Why?
(I mean why has it been done out like a trotters flat?)

Mandy2003 · 23/08/2011 20:38

No I think that's excellent, I would love that wallpaper when they've finished with it!

It is good that they are filming in London too, so many TV things are filmed miles away from where they are supposed to be set.

LynetteScavo · 23/08/2011 20:40

Oh, they are filming....it's not just someone random person thinking they are hip to furnish their flat like that.

Mandy2003 · 23/08/2011 20:47

Well I supposed they were filming! Perhaps someone's rented the flat for a celeb party!!

YoungishBag · 23/08/2011 20:49

It's on the daily mail website today, they are renting it for 18 quid a night.

HerHissyness · 23/08/2011 20:51

I used to live near Harlesden (NW London) our houses were old railway worker's cottages and if they needed a fill in scene for Corrie, they used to film them in the houses/streets near us!

I saw it tody in the Metro - are you in Peckham? Looks great, you can rent it like a hotel room !

Mandy2003 · 23/08/2011 20:58

Oh yes here it is!

Love the carpet too, and the bar! But I'm pretty sure I'd end up adding an M to the ship's name on the lifebelt!

It was good that the series was originally filmed in London anyway.

Genuine question. Why do you put almost everything in aibu? This clearly would be much better started as a thread in chat.

thesunshinesbrightly · 23/08/2011 22:33

I know only fools and horses was meant to be in peckham but it wasn't even filmed there Hmm.

Still exciting tho, my mum would be in heaven.

thesunshinesbrightly · 23/08/2011 22:34

Takitezee - Is their a rule i(we) don't know about?? that over a certain about of posts you cannot post in AIBU anymore????

Takitezee · 23/08/2011 22:39

I don't know, I haven't read the rules. I was just asking a question, it seems odd to start a post that is just for chatting in aibu when there is a busy chat forum.

Samiika · 23/08/2011 22:46

No, TLE likes AIBU.

She gets the draaaaaaamaaaaaa, and the chance for an argument when she's posted on here.

blackeyedsusan · 24/08/2011 00:12

hhhmmm and I though our hall carpet was bad (left over from the previous owner.. and looks like 70's original)

Pandemoniaa · 24/08/2011 00:25

Well there's a thing! Positive proof that All The World really can, quite literally, be A Stage!

TuftyFinch · 24/08/2011 00:33

Taoiseac do you always piss on peole's chips!
TheLadyEvenstar it's very exciting! I work in Peckham and saw it in The Metro tonight. Great that Peckham's in the news for something positive. Say 'hi' to Ronnie.

Tufty, it was a hive of activity tonight in the block and quite amusing seeing "slebs" in my block tbh. I think they had some sort of party tonight as there were a few of them here.

TuftyFinch · 24/08/2011 00:49

Ooh how lovely! Could you not pop along for a martini?

TuftyFinch · 24/08/2011 00:54

Sorry just realised I am intact living on a different planet and it's nearly 1am and all party goers will be tucked away in bed. Have to be up on 5 hours to get to Peckham! I think the £18 a night rental is until Sept so there may be more of the famous people.

Takitezee · 24/08/2011 06:47

TheLadyEvenstar I don't consisder myself a dick jumping on your post, I was just asking a question. It was just something I noticed that happened to bug me at that moment. You have answered the question in your own way but I still don't understand why you do it.

TuftyFinch I have never pissed on anyone chips, what an odd question.

ripstheirthroatoutliveupstairs · 24/08/2011 07:29

TLE you post where you want to love, I don't belive I've read any rule stating the correct place to post.
I clicked on the link and it transported me back to my Grandad's house. He had that very wallpaper for some reason and a collection of random treasures shite that my Mum had to clear out when he died.
