Summer Wine site writer Mike Fernley with you know who! 

Location Report : Marsden village , near Holmfirth. 

Tuesday 16th August saw filming based around the town of Marsden and 
for once it didn't rain!

I arrived at about 09:00 and wandered down to the park opposite the 
church where some scenes were being filmed with Cleggy, Truly, Alvin and 
Billy. Just before we moved on I had a chat with Ken Kitson and Louis 
Emerick who very kindly posed for pictures. Then it was across the 
river to a side street where various scenes were filmed with the men again, 
plus Marina, Miss Davenport, Howard and Barry. It was all very tight 
and difficult to get photographs.

After lunch it was back into town and the turn of Smiler and Tom who 
have an encounter with the long arm of the law. Stephen once again posed 
for his usual portfolio of shots. I found out that Tom will be 
appearing in pantomime in Grimsby this year and hopes to see some friendly 
faces.

As I headed off into the sunset I thought I could see a distant cloud 
meandering its way towards Marsden!!
