We always welcome comments and more information about our films.

At several points in the clip, (most notably around 01:43), we see boxes marked "Rovex". Rovex is a name associated with clockwork toys, (which indeed is what we see in this clip), and by the time of filming was one of the brand names of Tri-ang. Therefore the location here is either a Rovex or a Tri-ang factory.
A clapperboard at 01:16 details the date of filming as being 8 November 1972.
