A snapshot in time from when newsagents had these outdoor racks - never seen now. And the shopkeepers had to franticly scurry round to take them in if it started raining ....

Computer Stuff…..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Electric_System_4 See thumb 2.

Or IBM System 360? Be interesting to know if that was a working system or just a filmic collection of odds and ends. The paper tape in that Telex machine is either blank or has every position punched, which may be a test or just ignorance. It certainly doesn’t seem to be data! The second thumb looks a bit more realistic though.

I started work in 1965, no mobile phones, no e-mail, no texts (obviously) photocopiers that worked at about 1 sheet per minute, databases held on punched cards or for accounting systems ledger cards, magnetic strips were just coming in. Electronic calculators were a novelty, and all outside phone calls from the office went via a telephonist. Internal office calls were on a push button intercom! If you needed to speak to the office on trips out, find a call box! Easy, find a working call box, hard!

You've been there.



Label says English Electric Computer System 4. Also stated on IMDB. Probably a product placement, the 4-50 or the mid-1968 4-70

The machines could indeed be real. Some loose cables are visible, that may be a part of the plot

"Piano"
J&J Hopkinson, piano maker based in London; the style of this one looks like examples from the mid 1800s.
