Lee, re the Builders Arms (I just posted something and deleted it which may have confused you as you posted a reply at 21:13 then deleted it!), I always thought it was the Lloyds Arms, but I've now looked back at this thread and seen the screenshots you posted last year, which are definitely not the Lloyds Arms.I'm convinced that in later episodes of the series (which I remember seeing on telly), the Lloyds Arms exterior was shown with "Builders Arms" as the pub sign, so I think it was used for exterior shots at some point in the series. Perhaps you might come across it on the DVDs.

This is what Network DVD have on the releaseQueenie's Castle: The Complete SeriesDiana Dors stars as glamorous matriarch Queenie Shepherd, who rules the roost in Margaret Rose House in the Buckingham Flats development in Yorkshire, sharing her home with her three wayward princelings Raymond, Douglas and Bunny and brother-in-law Jack. While Queenie’s husband is mysteriously absent, her beloved boys are involved in all manner of dodgy activities and no Shepherd is a stranger to the local magistrates’ court; in fact, there are quite a few residents - neighbour Mrs. Petty for one - who would be heartily relieved to see the back of them... although the landlord of The Builders’ Arms would probably be forced to seek an alternative income!Coronation Street stars Lynne Perrie - as the aptly named Mrs. Petty - and Bryan Mosley also appear alongside Eastenders’ Tony Caunter in this raucous Yorkshire Television sitcom from Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall (Billy Liar, Budgie). Cut from the same cloth as Shameless, this release contains every episode of Queenie’s Castle, originally screened between 1970 and 1972.Catalogue Number: 7953208 Classification: 12 Picture: 1.33:1 / Colour Subtitles: None Time: 450 mins approx Barcode: 5027626320843 Number of Discs: 3 Sound: Mono / English Region: 2 / PAL
Is this the end of the story ...or the beginning of a legend?
