Today Darren Lovett takes a look at a Mother Natures Son location in Brighton
The Hotel was used in the episode “Mother Natures Son”
The Location is The Grand Hotel, Brighton
Nearest Station is Brighton
Of course not only was the Grand Hotel visited by the Trotter family in 1992 but it was also visited by Margaret Thatcher 8 years earlier. Though it wasn’t under the most pleasant circumstances. I wonder if there is still a bottle of Peckham Spring in the room?
Take a look at this great episode Mother Natures Son where Del decides to bottle tap water and sell it as Peckham Spring Water. Back in the money both couples enjoy a romantic evening… until they see a news flash about a major water contamination, caused by Del’s barrels.
Good morning,
I am a Brighton resident with a plot on the allotment site where Mother Nature’s Son was filmed. We have a few tenants who remember the occasions and found it great fun; the crew and cast found time to engage in friendly chat.
We have been discussing how to remember this for the benefit of ourselves and future plot holders. One suggestion has been to obtain a blue plaque to commemorate the event post it on our site shop wall.
We would like to hold an opening ceremony too.
What has been done before please to celebrate locations of ofah episodes?
We would love to hear from as many fans as possible.
Kind regards
