Blott on the Landscape

1984 pictures when the BBC filmed scenes for its serialisation of Tom Sharpe's novel, 'Blott on the Landscape'. House fronts and a petrol station were built in the Market Place only to be demolished by Jimmy Nail's drunken rampage on a JCB. The village turned out in force to see the Friday night filming, with pubs open, barbecues and a great party atmosphere
