Going the wrong way now!

 

[xotGD]

[martinsh]

[Donny Dave]

9 3/4 hours ?!!!

@xotGD is the closest so far.

 

[AndyPJG]

5 hours 3 mins

 

[Donny Dave]

5 hours 3 mins

As it has been over 24 hours since I set the question, and no more answers attempted in about 10 hours, I declare @AndyPJG the winner, as he pipped @xotGD by 3 minutes.

The play is a 2 parter, with the first part being 2 hours and 40 minutes, and the second being 2 hours 35 minutes, bring it to a total of 5 hours and 25 minutes.

It is now upto AndyPJG to cast a spell over us with the next question.

 

[AndyPJG]

Izzy wizzy.let's get busy...as my answer was only a guess from the previous hints, I will cast over an Open Floor.

Edit:- actually.isn't @xotGD within the 5 minutes range as specified in the original question? (5h25m v 5h30m)

5h 30m

 

[xotGD]

I'll take that as an invitation to set a question...

TV legal drama "North Square" is set in which city?

 

[D6130]

Leeds?

 

[keyesey07]

Bradford?

 

[xotGD]

Leeds?

Yes, it was set in Leeds. Park Square to be precise.

Your turn to address the court...

Thanks! In which two towns were the principal exterior scenes for the TV police series 'Juliet Bravo' filmed?

 

[OhNoAPacer]

The externals for the police station was filmed in Bacup. That is all I know.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I think that Burnley was filmed in from what I recall.

 

[SuspectUsual]

Todmorden

 

[xotGD]

Hebden Bridge and Halifax?

 

[D6130]

Hebden Bridge and Halifax?

Not those two, because....

I think that Burnley was filmed in from what I recall.

and

Todmorden

are correct.

The externals for the police station was filmed in Bacup. That is all I know.

I wasn't aware of that....so we now have a three way split. If nobody has any objections, I propose to ask a related tie-breaker question.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I wasn't aware of that....so we now have a three way split. If nobody has any objections, I propose to ask a related tie-breaker question.

This coming week, I have a number of medical appointments to attend, so please excuse me from the tie-breaker and let the other two contributors be involved when it is set.

 

[OhNoAPacer]

I don't believe my answer is worthy of setting a question so I will drop out from the tie break too.

 

[D6130]

In that case it's over to @SuspectUsual to set the next question.
