Police Dog (1955)
8/10
Enjoyable look back at recent history
14 April 2016
I've just enjoyed this film courtesy of Talking Pictures o n Freeview, I much enjoyed the almost drama-documentary style I was also most interested in the filming locations...not much detail is given o n the website except for information on the Boreham Wood Studios. During the film I suddenly realised that the police dog training school was filmed within a BBC transmitter station. You can clearly see the transmitter building (white building in the background...looking almost like an airfield control tower) and the lines of short telegraph poles that normally carry the feeder wires from the transmitter to the radiating antennas. These wires aren't visible, which makes me think that they had not been installed as the station hadn't been commissioned. As I'm a former broadcasting Engineer (yes, a real retired 'anorak' perhaps) I would be most interested to know where the site was....I'd be grateful for any help. RB Mannion
