lonely hearts/ fair cop

Just marvellous to see Joan Letch in an episode of D4 from 23 September 1974 called 'Lonely Hearts', as an actual character with, you know, character, called Lillian White. She's a policewoman, as you see, and she does things, she's not preposterous, she's not a nosy bitch or a bad neighbour, they should have made her a regular. Big mistake. 
The next episode is 'Fair Cop' which gives us the pleasure of seeing Crawfords stalwart Colin McEwan, as a criminal with the fabulous name of Earl Fowler...
...teamed with the solidly incredible Ross Higgins, as a slightly unethical policeman. Of course the two would be working together five years later in Kingswood Country. 

Behind Higgins there is the corner of Church and Bridge St Richmond, close to where the Orange Ice Cream Parlour used to but no longer stands

I'm guessing below is a version of the arcade that once and may still run behind those buildings. I haven't been there for a while. I'll check and get back to you.
And for what it's worth here's Higgins at the north end of Docker St, Richmond. Nothing too special about that, just always like to note when I can actually identify a place.
