So there I am watching the excellent new serial chiller "Whitechapel", it's all about a copy-cat Jack the Ripper active in 2008 exactly 110 years after the original Ripper murders.

Anyway the Det.Insp. is introduced in the toilet of their club with the Commander who has put him into this murder investigation squad. Well I'm looking at the urinals and thinking they look familiar then the wash basins so i say to my GF they look like the lavs at Great queen Street.

Yesterday I bump into John Hamill who knows all about this kind of stuff and ask him if any of "Whitechapel" was filmed at Grand Lodge. He says no I don't think so.

Today he phoned me and said yes you are a bit of a Masonic anorak aren't you. I say why and he says you recognised the toilets here from a couple of seconds of film on the telly, they did shoot scenes here.

I'm crushed.

In my defence the toilets at Grand Lodge are pretty distinctive

Hear, hear!  Not forgetting the cigarette rests on the copper pipework which were used when hands were busy elsewhere.  Very distinctive!

If they're all similar to the ones near the Library, yep.:)

Well things hotted up in the second episode! The Masonic "conspiracy" arrived with a tremendous crash heralded by one of the team of Detectives.

However, this was an unusual appearance to say the least! It lasted all of 5 minutes as a "Ripperologist" arrived and pronounced the whole idea to be "complete boolocks" very much as real ones do.
