1979 Glasgow
Another attempt to get images of old Glasgow from videos
( See the "That Sinking Feeling" post also )
This thread at Urban Glasgow names a lot of the locations . LINK
Only three of these buildings are still standing. The fake police station is one of them. Current view on street view LINK
This bar is now the Clutha. Camera is on Clyde St and the road opposite is Bridgegate
Charing Cross
City Chambers or Art Galleries pretending to be a hotel
Outside the "Hotel" , In the Art Galleries car park. Which of course they then drove from. by the Wee Manns, in a previous picture, to get to Finnieston. Hell of a detour.
The Depot. NB The bus top right
( Figured it out; its Stobcross Road , where the Tall ship used to be. The SECC/Hydro etc now stand where all that water is and the wall here may be part of a new planned distillery (2013) )

No buildings. I just liked this pan as it connects to the next image at the brazier you can see on the right. Also the chairs tied to the bus
You can just see the Finnieston Crane . Toilet Bus reappears
The last four are part of this run through the camp/market
Look at that futuristic computer.
Nicos (?) ( it must have just been opened at this point )
The modern building peeking out bottom left looks really familiar. Is it West George St.
A bar spotted early in the film is The Buttery.GMap OGP
