I asked what exactly the large rocket was for and was informed that it was there to repel zombies; I suspect this wasn’t entirely true – perhaps the crew didn’t want to reveal future episode secrets.

We meandered through the set from one end to find a policeman, hired specially for the occasion to prevent intruders like us gaining access, at the other. On the way back he was reluctant to let us back through until we pointed out that we were parked at the opposite end of the conservation area so we had to go back to return to our car. Evidently there should have been two policemen.<\/p>\n

He admonished us with: “you can’t go through there, they will be shooting – it will be too dangerous.” I replied: “surely they won’t be using real bullets.” He didn’t even smile.
