Mrs Merton's WIGAN girls.

First topic message reminder :

What occured?

Yes, it could be raining flat caps and clogs in both.

Going towards Asthon then.

Rather than going towards Standish

I bet Kendal Street isn’t cobbled like Bird Street.

It will be.

Bird street is in need of repair.

Kendal Street (Wigan) will be pretending to be a street in Manchester 1938

There’s a road sign saying Kendal St will be closed from 9th Dec (8am) - 10th Dec (8pm)

I drove past it Yesterday and saw it. Wonder where the tenants will be parking?

Anyone going autograph Hunting today?

Filming is tomorrow, Jo Anne.

Today is preparation.

I missed that one.

Helen Hunt.

Did you manage to get an autograph jo anne?

I didn’t go, Admin & I’d be too star struck if I had.

There was much ado there today, Camera booms abound, and there was a crane on Ledson's holding something up in the air. Many yellow vested people were milling around.

Sean Bean was there.


They kept that quiet.

Noooooooo! I missed Sean Bean?!

Don't tell the bays and grils.

He waved as I drove past, shoiuted 'E't alreet thee?' I replied, 'aye'. Then off I sped.

There's been some nice looking vintage cars on the street

Doo yoo mean "Parrys"

If that's the paint shop across the road, then I do.

Looks like they are back next week. Street closed from 22,01,19 to 25,01,19

HURRAH FOR DELAYS
