Just before 12 minutes, Arthur and Ray almost collide with an oncoming lorry here.

After nearly crashing, Arthur & Ray go to what has been known more recently as Rose's Café at 222 Church Road.

At 32m22s, Ray hurries back here after going to see McLeish and realises Arthur is in danger.

At 34m40s, Ray goes to McLeish's construction site in order to find out where Arthur is.

This location is to the rear of the police station on Acton Lane, a location that features throughout The Ray Daley Years.

KINGS HEAD PUB/SHOWDOWN WITH McLEISH 1 - THEN & NOW - Pictures by jno
THE ORANGE TREE PUB, 32-34 HILLSIDE, BRENT, NW10 8BN

At 46m22s we first see the inside of The King's Head Pub where Ray has told McLeish to meet him and Arthur at 7:30 p.m.

This pub closed in 2001 and was demolished for redevelopment in 2008. Watch carefully at 46m41s as we catch a glimpse of the Stonebridge Estate through a rear door behind the pub, shown in the middle shot below. This is the first of two locations used at the end of this episode with the second being the neighbouring building (described below).

KINGS HEAD PUB/SHOWDOWN WITH McLEISH 2 - THEN & NOW - Pictures by jno
REAR OF STONEBRIDGE PARK HOTEL (NOW 'BRIDGE PARK HOTEL'), 16 HILLSIDE, BRENT, NW10 8BN

This building is located directly next door to what was the 'Orange Tree' pub mentioned above. If you watch the episode carefully you are led to believe that the car park where the fight takes place is within view of the pub, as the landlord looks from the window and comments on the return of football hooligans. This hotel has a website here.
