Ta. If it had been that much maligned town North of Edinburgh, you'd have had half a chance.

Look at those mini cabs behind the police making a bee line for that woman a rover and Jenson 
It looks like there is a bridge over a river or canal where the 2 trucks are. it was taken around 1965 going by the vehicles as the moggie reg number has a letter on the left of the reg plate |

You're right about the date, late 60's I believe. It's from 'Villain' with a very young Ian McShane and Richard Burton. The Church is the bit that seems very familiar, the shops have probably long gone under a Tesco Metro.

The key to finding this location is the spire,the unusual church and the council block. Leave with me... |
