Rosehaven update 2 from Oatlands


Late Wednesday afternoon I braved the elements and went back to the Rosehaven set because they were doing a bit of exterior filming. This was cars arriving and then leaving the real estate office. I could not witness this close up as I had to stay on the other side of the road near the film crew but I did get a few more photos. It was very cold and windy but I stuck it out until they did at half past five. It was very dark by then and I must say I was in need of my heater and a hot cup of tea. Members of the crew I spoke to were happy to “Wrap things up” as they said. One of them told me they would be returning to Oatlands in about a month’s time. Meanwhile here are a few more photos I took. I didn’t get very many because it was rapidly getting dark.

The crew are getting ready for outdoor scenes of cars coming and going.
The film crew
This is a shot of the film crew. The man in black was in charge. They are set up on the lawns of the college. The large building seen in the background is the town hall.

Here is a close up of the shop window. Everything was very realistic

Another shot of the windows. I was wondering about the advertised homes. How did they arrange to get this pictures?
Inside the office
This is a shot of inside. It’s not very good but it was quite difficult to get any good pictures because of the adverts on the windows, screening and timing.
A night shot of the office
Here is one last shot after they finished for the day. They are putting the last of their equipment away.

I came to Australia with my mother and sister Vanda in 1966 from the UK aboard the Sitmar liner Castel Felice. We settled in South Australia I lived in the western suburbs of Adelaide for most of my life. I became very interested in retro items in my twenties. It was always a dream of mine to have an old house and fill it with retro items. I have done it twice now. My main interest is collecting old things. They do not have to be valuable, only interesting. There is something reassuring about old retro items. I have all sorts of things including doll related items. My other interests are my beautiful pets, art and going for drives to who knows where. I also enjoy board games or doing a scenic jig saw puzzle on a wintry afternoon by the fire. My goal is to travel a bit more as there are some places I would love to see
