I live in Bournemouth and I enjoy going to Swanage via Corfe Castle, its a nice route and Swanage itself has a nice charm about it. Still worth a visit IMHO.

I went on holiday two years later in 1979 to Bournemouth, and remember going one day to Swanage on a Hants and Dorset Bristol RE bus on the ferry from Sandbanks. Hasn't changed much.

I might have been on holiday there when this was filmed…😊

All the pets and pensioners in the film are dead.
