Moonbase hardware spotted in "Confessions of a Pop Performer"

Hi all,

I got an email from someone who spotted the UFO moonbase hardware in
the 1975 UK Sex Comedy "Confessions of a Pop Performer". He sent
me a screen capture from the DVD, which I have cropped a bit to
change it from an R-rated to PG-13 picture (you may still not want
to view this at your place of work!):

I wonder if these UFO props are still floating around... somewhere?

You know - I've seen that scene a few times, and never noticed the
Moonbase hardware! For some reason.

That's probably because you were too fascinated by Robin
Askwith's 'acting technique'. The operative word being "probably",
depending on how old you were when you first watched this cinematic
masterpiece.
Given that the list of films & shows that used props from U.F.O.
during the 70's is as long as my inside leg measurement and that
winking their lights on & off to simulate part of the equipment used
in a recording studio (Never having had the honour of watching the
flick, i assume that's what it is doing.) is a few steps down from
pretending to compute a UFO's flight path & destination, has anyone
got a more obscure/inappropriate use for such an iconic piece of kit?
