\"The<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The tour is run (and written) by a lifelong, Bristol-based Sweeney<\/em> fan John, and guests from as far away as Dundee and Cornwall are expected. Be a part of this special day! The tour is being run to coincide with the whole TV series being released on Blu-ray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m sure many of you remember the show on your TV sets – it hit screens in January 1975 and became an overnight success, reaching over 20 million viewers. Starring John Thaw and Dennis Waterman, The Sweeney<\/em> spanned four series and two successful feature films…and of course made John and Dennis household names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly enough, the show was one of the first to be shot totally on location rather than in a studio. Additionally, it was shot on 16mm film, which meant each episode felt more like a feature film. The producers had come up with the idea after seeing a screening of The French Connection<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Locations on The Sweeney Tour<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’ll be able to visit the former 19th-century school that was used by Euston Films<\/em> for all interior shots, and opposite the iconic street where the iconic opening titles were shot in 1974. <\/p>\n\n\n

Additionally, sites featured in the classic show Minder<\/em> will also be visited – these include Terry’s flat, the Winchester Club and Arthur’s car lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
