Alongside Holby City ED one of the most important places in the world of long running BBC medical drama Casualty is The Anchor, the local pub where the medics go to unwind. Throughout the show's four decade history it has been at the heart of break ups, make ups, engagements, marriages, celebrations, commiserations and everything in between. If it's walls could talk it would tell some tales.
I was lucky enough to be allowed inside the famous watering hole on a recent visit to the set and was surprised to see it is a fully functioning premises. Rather than a wooden set, it is a real building and it has recently been renovated so is looking more fresh and welcoming than ever. You could easily forget you were on a set walking through it's famous doors. It looks exactly like any local pub and the attention to detail is fantastic. The sun was shining when I was there so it was bright and airy and I half expected to see people day drinking.
