I saw some of the supergran locations as a kid,it was filmed at beamish,tynemouth and whitley bay,i always kept an eye out for scunner campbell as a kid,and grannies flying on bikes.The local coppers used to look atbus walking around with our airguns out of the bags shooting starlings in the village for ferret food and just tell us to put them back in the sleeve,nowadays the media would descend upon us like a ton of bricks and make out as if it was a re-enactment of hungerford,times change and not always for the better.
Lol we used to do the same and how true..
