Location Vauxhall Motors Limited factory, Luton UK. The buildings are easily recognised and the Bedford trucks are in Vauxhall livery of the 1960s.

In the earlier thumbnail from the movie 1957 Bedford C-type truck is visible alongside the earlier A-type.
Most of the buildings have now been demolished but part of it remains as the GM Manufacturing Limited van assembly plant.
