from what ive seen on the programme and someoen i know lives nearby
its less stored and more dumpoered where they lay
such a shame but maybe it will live again in some other feature (like when the tractor pulled everything from the prev series's - just as a clear out before scrap at a guess)

I would like to know this as well, I contacted the BBC after the program to see if it was for sale but to date haven't had a reply, was exactly the same as mine.

Yes I've heard this, someone said to me from what he heard you enter the studio and leave in two different places as to how true this is though?
