The Rogues (1964–1965)
Some 'euroscenes' were actually filmed in Europe
23 November 2006
Just a brief, if delayed comment on 'Euroscenes being filmed in a back lot'. I do remember the series and in one episode a 'castle on a bald hill' was featured. The 'castle on a bald hill' IS the remains of a real castle that Oliver Cromwell knocked about a bit and it's near my home town. The episode featured a car chase around the back streets of Newbury in the Royal County of Berkshire (pronounced "BARKSHURE") in good old England. It will be familiar to any service person who has been stationed at RAF Greenham Common.

Local knowledge detracted from the car chase as vehicles went up one way streets the wrong way and made impossible jumps in continuity. Nevertheless an excellent series,and as you say well ahead of it's time.
