Good afternoon all, please find attached pictures of the entrance to Paddington station left luggage / lost property office from 1982.
I’m trying to find out where the entrance was on Eastbourne terrace via Google Street View. On street view you can go back to 2008 which is different to how it is today.

Could anyone help with this many IMG_5267.jpeg

I presume these are from a TV show or film. I would think that 1 is outside looking in, while 2, 3 and 5 are inside looking out. There appears to be a road there (I think that is a 4 mph sign), which might be an access that comes in at a right angle to the platforms: the further railings are on Eastbourne Terrace. I suspect it was right down at the Praed Street end of Eastbourne Terrace.

Yes it’s from The Professionals episode “Spy Probe” - thanks for your suggestion of it being near the Praed Street- I’ve now found the location many thanks. The entrance off the street which leads to the offices is behind the lamp post in the 1st pic, last pic shows it no longer possible to view the front of the building.
