The first time I've actually filmed in London, the locations we've all had have been real inner city, grimy urban places which has been great. Filming here, you've got everything on your doorstep, so when you've got time off, you can go into town, so I've really enjoyed it.

Some of them would just be changed back to whatever form they used to be, before I second-guessed myself the first time.
