Intro Caps!!
« on: September 26, 2014, 09:12:30 PM »
I don't think these are HD, but maybe we can start with them? Also 3 did not upload so I need to check that isn't a crucial one.
Master LIST to follow here later!
 
 
Thanks to Alen!  :hrt:

The sign on the door #37 is "libreria paoline." I found a matching photo in Palermo (here) but the streetview doesn't dovetail. I'll work it out later. Time to watch the show.  :beer2:

37-39: OK, here it is. The bookstore's website had the address wrong. If you spin the camera around you can see the "ottica" and Palermo cathedral. I have a hunch the cherub fresco is somewhere nearby.

50, 51 are Queen Elizabeth medals

Actually, the medals are shown in intro caps are the medals are commemorated of Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee.

Because of the green on the caleche I'm figuring Marrakech. And the pink sign is probably just a telecom promotion the driver forgot to remove.

Anyone Super stroked that they played the entire intro?

Shows that they reversed a change they made in S24. Don't think this has ever happened before.
