It was actually No. 90775 formally No. 601 Sturdee. The real Dame Vera Lynn is sister loco No. 3672. Which this episode was filmed in 1995, No. 3672 was running alongside No. 90775
@@926.repton It's ok don't worry about it. Well the my first ride on the NYMR was behind Dame Vera Lynn on my 11th birthday in 1994. She sounded fantastic on the 1 in 49 climb. Looking forward to see her run again
Perhaps they are assuming that they’re in danger from a train colliding with them from behind, as far as they’re concerned control isn’t aware of their escapade
@@cupcakefairy87 Yep and Jeff Beck suited the scene far better than the song here. It's always about rights issues. I've noticed some of the DVD releases of HB with regards to reasons why songs were replaced don't make sense if the reason was down to rights. A number of episodes from the earlier series they have changed what was originally Hey Joe by Jimi Hendrix and replaced it with another Hendrix song, supposedly due to not having the rights, however, Hey Joe by Hendrix then appears in other episodes as were originally shown on ITV. So if there was an issue with that song then why does the song appear in other episodes but has been removed in other episodes?. It does not make one bit of sense.
@@castrolgtx5064 I think she means that they don't start from the beginning with the Rowans. I visited «Aidensfield» back in 2018, and fellow guests wondered why on earth they couldn't start with the Rowans. As a Norwegian I can tell that here in my country they ONLY shew the Rowans, (the first 7 seasons) and stopped after the first Craddock episode and went back to the Rowans again. It happened over and over again. Despite I am a blood fan of Heartbeat, I got tired and called the Broadcaster. I counted to 10 several times before calling them and asked what it was. Then they answred that it alll is on dated contracts, more like «best before». However, they couldn't guarantee what happends in the future. Ok. I watched my own recordings. And then had a break before going to Aidensfield (Goathland).
Interesting you say that, never noticed that before.. Yeah it is odd but maybe they didn't need one then. I did find it odd that Nick never needed to wear a police bike helmet only his regular bobby hat, I think there's only a few occasions from series 1 were you see him wearing a 1960s police helmet with the goggles wrapped around it. Why they never had him wear a helmet during much of the show I don't know as I'm sure it would've been a requirement for local village police PCs back then. I'm guessing they thought he looked silly with it on and just decided not to have him wear one.
For those who don't know the location well and have never been to Goathland and the surround area before, the way Nick pursues Greengrass on bike travelling alongside the track the route they are going doesn't make sense, instead where they are supposedly traveling towards they were going in the opposite direction and away from the village.
