Production Notes:

»

The restaurant was an Indian at the time of filming, and the owners report that filming took place over three days, with the production crew completely emptying the existing furniture and put their own in to make it look like a 'normal' services cafe! However, the blue seats by the door are fitted, and so still remain onscreen!
