`The Royal`

[shylock73]

When I went to Scarborough last year I saw the block of apartments in Holbeck Rd that are used as `The Royal Hospital` in the TV series on the cliff tops but on the opening frames of the new series there is a huge new building next door to The Royal and it wasn`t there a few months ago. Marvelous what camera trickery they can do nowadays. I looked with `Google Earth ` and it`s still the same.

Looking on GoogleEarth proves nothing - the images are not in real time.

The car I sold over 5 years ago is still on my drive, according to that site. The images were taken over several years and are still be taken, in the more remote parts of the world. It will be a while before they are updated.

I don't know f that new extension is there or if it is digitally enhanced.

Definitely digitally enhanced. I was, as stated ,on holiday in Scarborough last July, and no way could they have built a building that big in such a few months. Can anyone living in Scarborough confirm this please?

Apart from the fact that, from what I've seen, most of the "new" building appears to be suspended in mid air over the sea!
