A friend of my parents bought a Dark blue Cortina 1.6L reg I Think of dle 171t (?) n , the guy from the champions was the dad in the comedy, Martin clunes was the son It was hilarious s the car appeared in a couple of comedies (not just clunes)n , the friends groaned whenever the car was treated badly , they never got a bonus for the car appearing in the TV just loss for it being thrashed >

At least it would be cheap, but still money wasted when PHP finally goes out of favour. Strikes me that someone with too much time on their hands could set up a database of car registrations spotted in old films, magazines, etc. Shouldn't take more than about ten years to populate it, then anyone could do a search and see if their old banger happened to be parked in the background of On the Buses or whatever. Come to think of it, I wonder if ANPR type software is available to the general public. If so, you wouldn't actually need to watch the stuff yourself.

Theo Markettos <theom+news(a)chiark.greenend.org.uk> gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying: >> Strikes me that someone with too much time on their hands could set up >> a database of car registrations spotted in old films, magazines, etc. >> Shouldn't take more than about ten years to populate it, then anyone >> could do a search and see if their old banger happened to be parked in >> the background of On the Buses or whatever. > Been done, well without the registrations bit: http://www.imcdb.org/ Since a lot of filming uses fake plates, the registrations don't make that much difference anyway. |
