I remember looking at a website, years ago that had been put together by a Get Carter fan.
He gone around taking pictures of the Get Carter locations.
Lots of "Now" and "Then" photos. I wish I had kept the link.
It was really interesting - more interesting than it sounds.
I remember he said there was a nightclub at the top of that car park at one time.
Also photos of the beach where Carter got shot at the end - where there was that truck conveyer dumping coal waste into the sea. That conveyor has gone as well and it looks like a very nice beach now.
Really good website if anyone can find it again.
Any one seen the 2000 re-make of Get Carter with Sylvester Stallone? Absolute crap as you would expect.
