The construction of the church, the shape of the vehicles, even the brick walls: Everything points to England, because the Anglo-Saxon flair cannot easily be detached from its homeland "and concludes with:" Sidney Chambers and Geordie Keating: After the six episodes of the You don't want to do without it in the first season - luckily more episodes are being shot.
